Chess Played Quick — Kingdom Chess Edition
Don't blink and miss Chess Played Quick (CPQ), Chess.com's series of events where top chess streamers complete bounties for prizes.
Chess Played Quick — Kingdom Chess Edition happens on March 4 at 12 p.m. ET / 18:00 CET / 10:30 p.m. IST. For the first time, the event is played on mobile. It requires participants to play Chess.com's newly released game, Kingdom Chess, for two full hours.
Format
As a participant you are provided with a brand new account and required to play Kingdom Chess on the mobile device of your choice for two hours. The objective is to make as much progress as possible in the game within those two hours: progress is measured via challenges giving points based on difficulty. Each participant will be sent 1,000 diamonds in-game to help in your speed run.
Participants are strongly advised to familiarize themselves with the game on their own accounts beforehand.
