Major Update

On Steam

Perfect Chess Just got a MAJOR Update!


The table is ready for more players, more modes, and more ways to enjoy every match.

More Ways to Play

  • 14 game modes. Chess, Crazyhouse, Racing Kings, Three-Check, Antichess, Horde, Gothic Chess, Amazon Chess, Courier Chess, Chess 5x5, Chess 2.0, Checkers, International Draughts, and Game of the Amazons.

  • Quick Battle. Jump into a 10-minute match. If no opponent is found, a bot takes the seat so you can still play.

  • Public and private rooms. Create a room for everyone or share a six-letter code with a friend. Browse open tables by host, Elo, mode, and clock.

  • Play with Steam friends. See which friends own Perfect Chess and reach them through the Steam overlay.

  • Watch live games. Enter the code of a game already in progress and follow it as a spectator.

A Better Table

  • Wood, brass, and atmosphere. A warm tabletop presentation, a cinematic opening, background music, and distinct piece sets for classic chess, Chess 2.0, and checkers.

  • Clear, confident moves. Legal-move markers, last-move and check highlights, smooth animations, and a proper promotion picker.

  • Board notes. Right-click to draw arrows or highlight squares while you think.

  • Review every move. Follow the move list and step back through the whole game without leaving the table.

  • Five time controls. From 1-minute games to 30-minute classics, with low-time warnings built in.

  • Everything at a glance. Clocks, captured pieces, player connection status, and whose turn it is.

Smoother Matches

  • In-game chat. Talk with your opponent, get a soft notification for new messages, or hide chat when you want to focus.

  • Draw, resign, rematch. Offer a draw, resign with confirmation, and start a rematch without leaving the room.

  • Clear results. A proper result screen explains checkmate, timeout, resignation, and other endings.

  • Reconnect protection. If a connection drops, the table waits during a short grace period and shows a countdown instead of ending the game immediately.

Your Setup

  • Account and Elo. Sign in with Discord to keep your Elo, or play as a guest using your Steam name.

  • Sound and music. Separate volume controls that remember your choices, with music that continues from the menu into your match.


See you at the board.
