Choose the computer’s difficulty, see legal moves, and ask for hints on the board. The app’s game review lets you step through the moves afterwards.

Yes. LITCH has its own controls and a built-in opponent. Play a friend or the computer, adjust the difficulty, see legal moves, and ask for hints, all without a phone or app.

Use the up/down buttons on LITCH’s D-pad to change the chess-piece colors. You can change them at any time, including during a game.

The optional companion app extends Litchcraft with animation tools, adds game review, and gives you additional settings with easier configuration. It also provides lighting controls, firmware updates, and direct access to the LITCH manual.

Not yet, but it's coming very soon. For now, play against another frenemy or against LITCH's built-in computer.

Litchcraft turns LITCH into an art canvas. The optional companion app extends it with animation tools: choose colors, edit frames, save your work, and send it to the board.

A little assembly finishes the summoning. Fitting and gluing the magnets takes five to ten minutes. Leave the protective paper on the acrylic top and place it directly over the steel sheet to hold the pieces while they dry for 30 minutes; wipe excess glue off each piece first. Then peel the paper from both sides of the top and all four side pieces (under five minutes). Follow the final assembly steps.

Yes. LITCH fully supports classic chess, including castling, en passant, check, checkmate, and pawn promotion (queen by default). Duck Chess is optional, and a lot of fun.

To enable Duck Chess, set up the normal 32 pieces, then place Vex on an empty square in the four middle rows before the first move. LITCH marks Vex yellow. Leave Vex off, or remove them before the first move, to play classic chess.

Once a game has started, start a new game to change modes: hold X and Circle together at one end for about two seconds, or tap New game on the app’s Play page.

That’s Vex. In Duck Chess, each turn has a chess move followed by a duck move. The duck blocks a square for both players. Meet Vex and learn the rules.
