How to play
Takebacks
Take a move back and try another idea. Takebacks come with Help and teaching, against any opponent.
All articlesHow it works
On your turn, choose Take back. Your last move and your opponent's reply both come off the board, and it's your move again. Choose it again to go further back, as far as the first move.
When you can
- Help and teaching is on: turn it on in Settings.
- It's your turn, and the game is still going.
The clock doesn't rewind
In a timed game, taking a move back doesn't give back the time you spent on it.
Before a move goes out
With Help and teaching on, the blunder check catches a costly move before your opponent sees it, so you may not need a takeback at all: see Help while you play.
