Halfchess is a unique chess game designed for iPhone users who want to enjoy a quick and challenging chess experience. With its innovative features and gameplay, Halfchess offers a refreshing twist to the traditional game.

In Halfchess, the game is played on half the board, making it easy to fit on your phone's screen. Each game lasts only 5 minutes, making it perfect for those who are busy but still love to play chess. The game also features 2-player games and a community, allowing players to connect and compete with others.

One of the standout features of Halfchess is the 100+ stages available to practice against AI on a smaller board. This allows players to improve their end game skills, such as deep thinking, fast-thinking, pushing opponent pieces, and reducing their attack area.

Playing blind chess is another way to improve focus and memory, and Halfchess offers a unique blind mode where the chess pieces disappear after a few moves. This variant challenges players to rely on their memory and concentration skills to make strategic moves.

Halfchess introduces two new rule changes to the age-old game of chess. Firstly, if you stalemate your opponent, you win instead of it being a draw. Secondly, there is no castling in Halfchess, adding a new level of strategy to the game.

With notable achievements such as reaching the 12th position at the Pioneer.app global startup competition and media coverage from YourStory.com, Halfchess has established itself as an exciting and innovative chess game.
