Chess.com Hid This From You, Here's What I Found

Hear me out,

Chess.com has a couple cool "Easter Eggs" that actually work, and here are four that are my favorite. If you didn't know them yet, you will now! 

check it out 

1. The “Puzzle Rush” timer has a hidden animation
When you hit the last 10 seconds, the timer does a tiny “shake” animation that most people never notice. 

2. Press “F” to punch the board
In certain event periods, pressing F during a game makes the board shake as if punched. This one is definitely my favorite (especially when I blunder my rook)

3. Press “X” to change POV (point of view) 
When pressing X, the board will flip the view. Cool!

4. Press Z ... zoom‑in camera effect
Not as dramatic as X, but it gives a quick zoom‑in/zoom‑out animation.
It works on most browsers/apps so try it out. 

Note that if some of these don't work, you may have a different browser or device... I have a Windows and I have tested these out. Just a friendly reminder

The only real Easter Egg in the list is F key...

And the "zoom-in" stuff is called Focus mode
