Questions
The short answers.
Is Chess Classica free?
Yes. The whole game is free and supported by ads. Optional purchases remove ads, unlock every design or add coins.
Can I play without internet?
Yes. Games against the computer, 2 player games, puzzles, lessons and openings all work offline. Only online play needs a connection.
Do I need an account?
No. You can play straight away. A free Google or email account is optional and backs up your progress so you can restore it on another phone.
When do ads appear?
Never during a game. A short video can play when a match starts and after it ends, and after every few puzzles. Reward videos are always your choice.
Are coins real money?
No. Coins are virtual, can't be exchanged for money and have no cash value.
How do I delete my account?
