NOTE that the chess squares may be too SMALL for you. DO NOT BUY if you have difficulty touching small areas of your device.

When Alekhine was asked "How many moves do you see ahead?" his answer was "Just one move deeper than my opponent!".

Chess Vision Trainer is a chess training system designed to develop and improve your visualization and move calculation skills in Chess. Visualization and calculation play a major role in winning chess. These are the skills that separate the masters from the amateurs.

The built-in chess playing engine acts as your training partner. The position displayed on the chess board is not the true position. What is always displayed is the past position a certain number of half-moves (plies) prior to the true position.

You do not play your moves based on the displayed position but based on the true position (which you do not see but you are trying to visualize). This forces you to look ahead of the chess position you see on the board.

TIP: Just like physical strength, good chess vision cannot be achieved in a few days.
