Playlin'sGuide

Matle is a daily chess puzzle game inspired by Wordle where your mission is to guess the missing chess pieces that complete a checkmate position from a real game.

Each puzzle shows a partial chessboard with a checkmate scenario. You guess the pieces needed to finish the position, using feedback to refine your guesses.

  • Guess pieces by name and square (e.g. "Qg7" for a queen on g7).
  • After each guess, you get color-coded feedback:
  • 🟩Correct piece and position
  • 🟨Correct piece, wrong position
  • ⬜Wrong piece
  • You have 6 guesses to complete the checkmate.
  • A new puzzle drops daily, featuring master games and tactical brilliance.
  • Optional Google sign-in syncs your progress, streaks, and stats across devices.

Why we like it:

  • βœ…Combines the logic of Wordle with the strategy of chess in a fresh, engaging way.
  • βœ…Teaches tactical patterns from real master games.
  • βœ…Perfect length for a quick daily challenge that sharpens your chess vision.

Hint: Start with pieces that are likely to be on the board, and use the feedback to narrow down where each piece belongs.
