It’s been an exciting 7 days at BoltChess! This NEW platform connects chess players with titled players for Training Games! In just 7 days, we’ve seen interesting matches, great new features, and a growing community of chess enthusiasts worldwide! 

Day 1 - Adding Titled Players and Running Tests!


On Day 1, we started with tests - sending challenges to Titled Players to test it out, and make sure everything is ready for our 1st users ! An interesting fact: it’s funny, but every time we test, we end up playing actual games! We never abort the games because we love playing so much—the experience is so engaging and enjoyable! <3

Day 2-7: We got First Users! : Game Analysis

It’s incredible to see so many players diving into the action and enjoying games on BoltChess. With the excitement at its peak, we’ve selected a 7 standout moments from 7 games played this week that truly capture the spirit of competition and learning.

This Week at BoltChess (Developers, Developers, Developers)

This week, we added adding exciting new features!

  • Puzzle of the Week: Improve your strategy by playing positional puzzles against Titled Players

  • Play from Specific Openings: Practice your favourite opening lines

Position of the week: 

An isolated queen's pawn is common in this setup. White aims to trade pieces, targeting the weak d5-pawn to gain an edge in the endgame. Black should avoid trades and use the pawn's dynamic strengths, like more space and control of e4 and c4. Practice playing with isolated pawns! Send challenge to Titled Players and practice strategy!

What a week! With over 300 sign-ups and amazing games full of creativity, BoltChess is off to a great start! We’re excited to see our community grow as players face Titled Players and learn from Every Match!
