Any question after your chess match?

How do I play with a friend?

First you need to be friends on the Oculus platform. Only then, you will find them on the “Friends” board at the left of the menu. Grab the piece of the player, set up the game and send them an invitation.

What’s the difference between Casual and Rated matches?

Casual matches don’t count for your global ranking while Rated matches do. All types of matches give you experience points that will count towards your profile progress in Chess Club.

My hand-tracking is failing

Make sure you are in a well-lit environment. Make sure there is no direct sunlight on your headset, hands or your immediate environment. Use 3 fingers to pick up the pieces, thumb, index and middle finger.
