Using this web client and any up to date Internet browser you can play games with your friends all over the world, you can watch broadcasts, or you can chat with your friends. New features are being added on a regular basis.

 

If you are using a computer with the operating system Windows it is better to use the standalone access software that can be downloaded from www.playchess.com. This software offers more functionality than the web browser application.

 

 

You can use the web client either as a "Guest" or with a registered player account. However, as a "Guest" not all features of the application are available.
