Modified on Tue, 29 Sep at 5:34 AM

Practice vs AI lets you play the computer at your own pace, with optional hints and feedback.

Start a practice game

  1. On Home, tap Practice vs AI.
  2. Choose an opponent. Computer opponents range from beginner level up to very strong.
  3. Choose a Length: Single, or a match of 1, 3, 5, 7 points or longer.
  4. Turn the Hint Button and Feedback on or off.
  5. Check the Training Fee (coins), then tap Start Game.

If you choose a length your plan doesn't include, you'll see an upgrade message.

Good to know

  • Practice games don't change your rating. They also don't count towards your wins and losses.
  • The training fee is charged in coins for each point of the match.
  • Practice games still show up in your Analysis list, so you can review them afterwards.

Still stuck? Contact support with your username, which AI opponent you chose, the length, and a screenshot of any message you saw.
