VR Chess is a cross-platform game world created by Nex1942. It was published in 2021. Many playable Chess boards can be found within, allowing for multiple chess matches to be played simultaneously.
Design
The main attraction is the chess boards, which are scattered all across a modern house interior. There are two stories, the second of which has an internal balcony hanging over the main area.
Chess Boards
Each Chess Board found in VR Chess comes with extensive customization options.
Game Modes
Besides Standard Chess, the modes Atomic Chess, Chess 960, Fog of War (aka. Dark Chess) and Crazyhouse may be chosen before starting the game.
Blitz Clock
The default clock is set at 10 Minutes for each player. It can also be set to 15:00, 30:00, and 60:00 and an additional Increment of +2, +5, or +10 seconds can be set. A game may also be played without any Clock.
Visuals and Sound
Each Chess Board has 3 different themes to pick from, which come in the form of a high-contrast default board, a marble board, and a wooden board. The sound is on by default and may be turned off before starting a match.
Spectate
To better observe an ongoing match, anyone may enable a spectator mode, which opens up a large 2D view of the live board with all the pieces.
Rating selection
While not found on each board itself, a Player rating will show up on their play side, if set upon joining. This rating is set manually, but setting it truthfully helps to find matching opponents.
