Private test version. Last updated 13 November 2026. This text will be completed with the operator's name and contact address before public release.
ChesStresS is a chess game. This is a private test version: features may change, and progress may be reset.
You must be 13 or older. If you are under 18, play with the agreement of a parent or guardian.
Tokens are a game item with no cash value. They cannot be exchanged for money, goods or prizes, and cannot be transferred between players. You can always play without spending tokens.
Play your own moves. Engines and outside help are not allowed, except opening books in correspondence games. One account per player. We may close accounts that break these rules after review by a person; you will be told why and can appeal.
You and your opponent may freely use, record, stream and share your own games, including screenshots and video. You allow us to store your games and to show and broadcast them inside ChesStresS and on its official channels. You may not copy other players' games in bulk or by automated means.
No offensive names, harassment or impersonation of staff or other players.
The game uses Stockfish, a chess engine licensed under the GNU GPL v3. Its licence text is included with the game.
The test version is provided as it is, without guarantees of availability. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law.
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
