Based on the great work by Peter Osterlund , and the Stockfish development team and many many others, I am pleased to announce Droidfish with the current dev-Honey engines. This maiden release will run on most of the nearly 3 billion active Android devices .

5 downloads - 5 engines

Oki Maguro ( translation "Big Tuna" in Japanese), in honor of our friends in Japan who kicked started the neural net in Stockfish. This engine is most like Stockfish.

Bluefish - the excellent SF clone, initially started by my good friend Eelco de Groot. In classical mode, places more emphasis on evaluation, than material compared to the other engines. Piece values are just 78% relative to standard SF.

Black Diamond- based on Crystal, the great chess problem solving SF clone started by my good friend Joe Ellis.

Weakfish - a very weaked SF clone that is very fun for humans to play.

Honey - named after my late grandmother. "Honey" Byrne, not as aggressive in using classical evaluation

All engines have Neural net and 55 Syzygy endgame tablebases embedded, Syzygy Tb's were authored and created by genius Ron de Mann. The code to embed the Syzygy tablebases was written by longtime Stockfish developer mstembera.
