Play Online (Guest)
Play a game against another person online. No account, no sign-up.
You can play chess online as a guest: just open this page, get matched with another player, and start the game. No email, no password, no subscriptions. Perfect if you want a quick game without committing to an account.
Games are played with standard time controls. You can choose blitz, rapid, or classical. If you leave, the game is forfeited; if you stay, you get a real game against a real opponent.
Online matchmaking is coming soon. Until then, try Play AI to practice, or Puzzles to work on tactics.
