How to Spectate a Chess Game

  1. Get the Room ID — ask a player for their Room ID, or use the spectator link they shared.
  2. Enter your name — spectators are visible in the room but cannot make moves.
  3. Watch in real time — every move, capture, and power-up usage is shown live on the board.

Why Spectate?

  • Coaching — teachers and coaches can watch students play and provide feedback after the game.
  • Learning — watch experienced players to learn new openings and strategies. Study the chess openings ↗ in action.
  • Entertainment — cheer on friends during their matches and enjoy the competition.
  • Streaming — share the spectator link with an audience for live commentary.
