00:00If you play chess and don't have anyone to play with, then here is the perfect solution

00:17for you.

00:18Or even if you do have friends that play and you both own a VR headset, this saves setup

00:23and breakdown times.

00:25You can either play against AI on 5 different levels, Tryout, Intermediate, Advanced, Master

00:33and then Grandmaster.

00:35You then select your time row which is between Blitz which is 5 minutes long, Rapid at 15

00:42minutes long, Classic at 30 minutes long and finally Tournament at 60 minutes long.

00:48You can then choose to be black or white or just randomise it.

00:52Next pick your setting.

00:55There are currently 4 settings, the Grand Palace and the Masters Garden.

01:00They are a nice relaxed atmosphere with classic looking boards.

01:04The Stonehenge setting is a beautiful backdrop with animated pieces and then finally the

01:10Isha Dream setting is in black and white.

01:13I'm not entirely sure why you would want to play in black and white but each to their

01:18own.

01:19There is also no choice of mixed reality which is a shame, this would be a perfect setting

01:25for those wishing to play a bit of chess whilst maybe watching television.

01:29So then off you go, start playing.

01:32Nothing really much I can comment on here, the AI seems fair, not that I'm an incredibly

01:37good player or anything, so I just played on Intermediate, the only thing I can say

01:42is just don't forget to hit that timer at the end of each go.

01:47Once in the game you can pick up a piece beside the board which allows you to make the clock

01:53automatic or you can toggle music on or off.

01:57You also have a choice to play with just your hands which is pretty cool.

02:02You also have an option to customise your AI game, so you don't have to keep selecting

02:07all the options, just select them once and then you have a customised piece.

02:12If you want to try play against real people, you can add your friends or you can try against

02:17people online, there is an auto match lobby where the game will try find the best active

02:24opponents at a similar level to you.

02:27There is also voice activation where you can move pieces and other commands such as I resign,

02:34it's a draw, hide him or her and mute my opponent, though I would be incredibly offended if the

02:41last thing I heard my opponent saying is mute my opponent and then they never talk again.

02:48Anyway, I have really enjoyed playing this for the past few hours, I would really like

02:53to see new backdrops added, more choices of boards and most importantly more selection

02:59of playing pieces, even if they are not animated it would be good to have a lot more choice

03:05of pieces and then for each player to be able to take their chosen sets into a game.

03:11Now for those saying I don't know how to play chess, well I didn't see anything here

03:16that teaches you how to play chess, but with the power of the internet, that's easy to

03:22look up and then you can try out and play in this game at your own comfort in privacy.

03:28So on that, I score Chess Club VR a 30 out of 35, you can find my scoring system in the

03:36description section below. Now please show me support by hitting that like button, leave
