Deep Green

Deep Green is a chess application that offers a clean and distraction-free experience through its native user interface. The app features a custom-designed chess set that is rendered in high resolution in both outline and 3D throughout the app. It also has tight integration with the system, allowing for features such as sharing, undo/redo, contextual menus, Dark Mode, and high contrast support.

One of the unique aspects of Deep Green is its open game format. This means that games can be easily shared, saved, copied, pasted, imported, and exported in the widely used PGN and FEN formats. This makes it easy for players to share their games with others and analyze them using other chess software.

The app also boasts a unique chess engine that was developed specifically for Deep Green on the Apple Newton over 25 years ago. This engine provides an enjoyable opponent with adjustable strength and is praised for its humane gameplay.

Deep Green also allows for a customizable appearance, such as having the knights turn towards the center of the board and a slightly random placement of the pieces. This adds a unique touch to the game and makes it more engaging for players.

The app has been rewritten from scratch, making it a modern and maintainable application that is prepared for the future. It is also private and ad-free, with no tracking or analytics, making it a trustworthy and secure option for chess players.

If you enjoy using Deep Green, please consider rating it favorably on the App Store. This will help others discover and benefit from this exceptional chess app.
