What's inside
The same four tabs your child will see in the app.
A map of 9 kingdoms and 58 islands. Each island teaches one idea — how the knight moves, what check is, how to checkmate — with short voiced lessons and a companion by their side.
Over 16,900 chess puzzles that adapt to their level: when it goes well, it gets harder; when they get stuck, they get a hint, never a scolding.
30 opponents, from the chick that can barely move to the dragon that shows no mercy, who cheer, sulk and celebrate. Plus 6 minigames with 180 levels to practice each piece.
Their companion — penguin, bear, cat, hedgehog, rabbit or turtle — its outfits, its room and everything they have achieved. What they learn shows.
Grows with your child
When you create the profile you choose an age range. Roko changes the size of everything, the amount of text and the pace.
Ages 3–4
Nothing to read: everything is voice, pictures and big buttons. They meet the board and the pieces through play.
Ages 5–6
Very short sentences and lots of voice. They learn how each piece moves and their first captures.
Ages 7–8
Now they read: short explanations, check and checkmate, and their first full games.
Ages 9–12
Tactics, openings, endgames and opponents that make them think. Without feeling it is an app "for little kids".

Made for parents
Roko is there for your child to learn, not to hook them or sell them anything.
No banners, no videos, no ad networks. Not now and not "in the free version".
No friends, no messages, no leaderboards. Nobody can contact your child.
In the car, on a plane or at home without wifi. The child never goes online.
We do not ask for their name or birth date. They pick a nickname from a list.
Settings, account and links sit behind a gate that a young child cannot open.
One profile or everything, from the app, in two taps. No need to ask us.
More than moves
Twelve illustrated panels tell how chess was born in India, traveled through Persia, reached Spain, where the queen became the strongest piece, and ended up on the board in your home.
