I made a chess board. It lets you play chess. Wow!


The board allows you to play chess against a friend. It enforces the rules of the game, so nobody can just cheat their way to victory. It features an easy to read display, simple control panels, and a fun song for the winner. All this with only pure redstone, no commands or functions.

The video linked here shows some gameplay and how to use the controls, and includes a Completely Legitimate Tutorial™ for how to build one yourself!

Watching the video it looks to me you had the time of your life with some friends.

Either way, it is an impressive upgrade over your 7 year old chess build (which was already ahead of mine version from ~7/8 years ago).

I especially, like the nice clean user friendly interface.

Excellent made!

Thanks! The extra time and knowledge from the past attempts definitely helped a lot.

We did indeed have quite a time filming this, that tends to happen with this group lol

If I remember correctly you too built a pure redstone chessboard some years ago, yours and this are the only ones I've seen in minecraft, and both are awesome!
I really like the input interface here, very user friendly, and the fact that enforces rules is insane!
I want to download it and try it for myself :)

Indeed, as far as I know (and just quickly searched) this (his older separate) and mine are the only pure-redstone based chess-systems. I did find some commandblock ones.

I wholeheartedly agree on terms of the user input interface.

Let me know what you think! (and if you find any bugs, I highly doubt I got them all)
