GNOME Chess in Breadstick
Breadstick runs Debian's own gnome-chess package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so GNOME Chess should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.
Breadstick draws graphics with the processor rather than the GPU, so 2D, puzzle, card and board games suit it best, and fast 3D games run slowly. More about games in Breadstick.

GNOME Chess is a simple chess game. You can play against your computer at three different difficulty levels, or against a friend at your computer.
Computer chess enthusiasts will appreciate GNOME Chess’s compatibility with nearly all modern computer chess engines, and its ability to detect several popular engines automatically if installed.
