Our Expert Score

80/100

The Queen's Gambit Chess is much more than just a chess engine with a skin. It’s a love letter to the Netflix series that genuinely tries to teach you the game the way Beth Harmon sees it. The 'Beth Vision' mechanic, which highlights threats and opportunities on the board, is a brilliant way for beginners to start understanding the geometry of the game. It makes learning feel like a superpower.

The presentation is top-notch, with locations from the show like the basement of the orphanage and Beth's apartment recreated beautifully. You can play against characters from the show, each with their own distinct AI personality and skill level. Whether you're a grandmaster or someone who just learned how the knight moves, there's a lot of value here. It’s easily one of the most polished and welcoming chess apps available.
