Choose between, online, robot or local play. ELO Rating System : Standard chess ranking system for anyone playing online Modern Chess Rules : Supports everything you'd expect from competitive chess, e.g. en passant, repetition draw (3x), stalemate etc. No In-Game Purchases : You pay a one-time price for the client, if you choose our official client (the one shown in the video above). Open Data/Free Platform : This game has an unusually sound long-term foundation. This has interesting implications for the technically inclined, read more at Github GoblinChessChromiaBackend.
