Pick a visual style
Sets layer spacing, transparency, and effects. Everything can be tweaked later in Settings.
◈

High contrast, wider layers, minimal effects. Best for learning.
⬡
BALANCED
Good aesthetics, clear readability. Recommended for most players.
✦
CINEMATIC
Full effects, tight layers, aurora glass. Beautiful but complex.
Gameplay options
Key settings most players never find. All can be changed later in Settings → Controls → Gameplay.
AUTO-SWITCH LAYER BY CLICK/TOUCH
Clicking a valid move on a different layer automatically switches to it and executes. Advanced players prefer manual control.
LAYER VISIBILITY
"All" shows the full board. "Adjacent" shows nearby layers. "Single" is the cleanest view.
CAMERA AUTO-ROTATE
Board slowly spins when idle. Looks great; some players prefer it off.
THREAT VISION (ALWAYS ON)
Permanently highlights all squares the opponent can capture in red. Toggle in Settings → Gameplay anytime.
SHOW OWN THREATS
Also overlay your own attack coverage in blue. Useful for spotting undefended squares.
