Playing chess with a friend
Do we need an account to play chess with a friend?
No. You and your friend can play without an account, directly in your browser.
How do I send my friend a link to the game?
After creating your room, copy the invite link and send it to your friend in a messaging app. They will join the same room.
Can I play on my phone while my friend uses a computer?
Yes. You can use different devices. The room link opens the version of the game suited to each device.
What does the time increment mean?
After each move, the selected number of seconds is added to your remaining time. For example, 3 + 2 gives each player three minutes plus two seconds per move.
Can I play chess with a friend in another country?
