The Queen’s Gambit Chess brings the Board genre to life, and throws up exciting challenges for gamers. Developed by Netflix, Inc., this Android game is best experienced on BlueStacks, the World’s #1 app player for PC and Mac users.
The Queen’s Gambit Chess really feels like you’ve stepped right into the world of the show, but it’s not just for hardcore chess folks. Right from the start, there’s this map that acts as a sort of home base — you get to see familiar places from Beth’s story, and it all looks great on a bigger screen with BlueStacks. All the basics are there: classic chess, some slick boards in both 2D and 3D, and a bunch of personal stats and goals that you can actually track through the week if you want to push yourself.
What’s cool is the teaching side of it. The game doesn’t just throw you into matches — there are detailed lessons, a glossary for all the fancy chess terms, and this “Beth Vision” thing that almost lets you peek at threats or possible moves like those famous moments from the series. If a mistake happens, you get a chance to undo or review moves without feeling punished, which really helps players who want to get better at the game. There’s a good mix of solo play and multiplayer, too, whether it’s online with random people, friends, or even sharing one screen in pass-and-play.
The AI actually plays like characters from the show, so you can see how Beth might play, or challenge Borgov if you’re up for it. And if you just want to collect some fun stuff, there are custom postcards and little rewards tied to progress and achievements. Everything moves at your pace, so whether someone’s still learning the ropes or already knows their way around an endgame, there’s stuff to do and skills to pick up.
