Field notes
The listed modes include four AI levels—Casual, Tactical, Expert, and Master—and three styles: Balanced, Invader, and Hunter. For friend games, the page says players choose the board, options, and clock, and both press Start before play begins. Matchmaking is limited in the description to standard 8×8 games with seven minutes per player.
