Play Shatranj Online
Create a private room for someone you know, or open a public room and wait in the lobby. The host chooses White or Black, and the player who joins takes the other side. White moves first. Once both seats are filled, later visitors enter as spectators.
Create a room
Choose a room type, then invite a player with the link or room code.
A public room appears in the lobby while its second seat is open. This browser may host only one public room at a time.
Join a room
Paste an invitation link or enter a room code. An open seat lets you play; a game already in progress opens in spectator mode.
Leaving does not end the game. The host can return through My rooms or close the room; if both players go offline, it remains available for about 20 minutes. A room code connects this game and does not store personal information.

Share a Link, Start a Game
Create a room and send its link or code to another player. When you are both connected, moves stay in sync on the same 8×8 board. You can also join a waiting public room from the lobby, or watch a game already in progress.
Share a room with a friend
Create a private room, choose White or Black, and send the link or code to the person you want to play.
Join an open room
Open rooms appear in the lobby. Join a waiting room to sit down, or watch a game already in progress without moving. Room codes stay with the host and are not listed.
Every accepted move shows up, and mate or a bare king ends it
When it is your turn, make a move and the other device updates at once. Checkmate, stalemate, or a bare king ends the game; if you drop offline, reopen the same room to resume.
