Are you able to play games with other players on chess.com, lichess.org, etc?

We have a collaboration with Chess.com which allows all the Square Off users to challenge any one from 21 Million Chess.com player. In the meanwhile, we are discussing partnerships with other Chess platforms as well and will keep adding more partners in the future

 

The above post is from the FAQ section of SquareOff Chess. I am unable to use my board with anyone from chess.com. Does anybody know how to sync up chess.com & SquareOff chess?

 

Sulle

No idea. I didn't try yet to play against humans,  as I am in the middle of a tournament.

I forgot that there are different versions of SO. I think I should purchase the grand kingdom with all the additional functions.

Im so glad i got the grand kindgom set. It is so nice to have a little break in between games and watch the pieces set themselves up.

Perhaps I can sell the computer to the clinic where I give chess lessons for beginners and buy the better one.  I used already once the SO with my people and they really love it!  Of course.

Something like this :)

I have to make something to protect the device. A plexiglas cover would be cool but it is expensive. Probably I will do something with wood. My cat likes to sit on the computer, and he is really heavy.

A simpler solution would be to get rid of that cat LOL

How long exactly did it take to get the board? I am considering getting one. Seems really good.

Hard to say. I believe they are doing it in about three weeks now.  I can tell you I waited well over a year to get me mine and it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT!!!!!!!!! hands down the best purchase i ever made. Check the comments I made in this feed to get a 10% discount on the Square off chess set.

@maik1988, thanks for that feedback.  I haven't seen a Square Off chess set in person, so I didn't know how much of an issue the aesthetics might me.  That does matter very much to me, so hopefully the company will take note and improve the board appearance.  Users can supply their own favorite chess pieces, assuming the board square-size is close to standard.

Yenny-Leon I am not sure if the chess pieces will work with my other set i can check it out when i get home though.

 If you decide to buy it use promo code JOSEPH10 to save some money.

*note*

I do not work for square off

I am not affiliated with square off

I do not get anything if you use the promo code or don.t.

I love set and want more players to be on it.

Saving money is always a good thing

 

 

I think you may have ordered it by then or weren't in the conversation yet.

Hei guys, do you really plan to let the discussion die here?
torrubirubi
Okay, I will go on discussing „alone“, perhaps some of you will pop up again :D

I will order today the Grand Kingdom set, as I would like to have the pieces going completely out of the board. Strange that you didn’t realise that they are selling two different versions.

The other device I plan to sell to the clinic I work. I can use use in the chess lessons. People can play against SO, we all can comment the game, a cool way to improve in chess.

We even can organise a tournament to see who can win two games against SO at level x (I still have to figure out at which level my students still have a chance to win).
