A few things worth knowing.
Do the pieces really move by themselves?+
Yes. The physical robotic pieces move independently across the board, including your opponent’s moves and automatic position setup. The 3D scene on this website is an illustrative demonstration.
Can I play against AI or people online?+
Yes. The original hardware supports chess engines and online play through the Chessnut app, with connections to Chess.com and Lichess. Platform accounts and setup may be required.
What is ZUG ONE?+
ZUG ONE is Extoril’s collection of intelligent chessboards, built on Chessnut Move hardware. Choose wooden or plastic pieces; both editions share the same robotic movement and built-in AI. Landing-page campaign images, the animated board, and films are illustrative. Store photographs are retouched for Extoril presentation; supplied hardware and software retain manufacturer branding.
