Mittens Is Back! Celebrate The Holiday Season By Playing Chess Against Fan-Favorite Bots

It’s the last month of 2023, and this has been one of the biggest years ever for chess. A record number of players, a record number of games, and a spectacular year for bots fans (hehehe).

What better way to celebrate than to bring back the most popular chess bots of the year? ChessGPT, Deadlost, Grandpa Gambit, FrankenIsla, and the one and only Mittens are back until the end of the year. Face off against the worst chess bot we’ve ever had, the most talkative one we’ve ever created, or the toughest, most mysterious chess entity of all time!

And what if you get too caught up playing chess during this holiday season and forget to pick up presents for your friends and family? Well, you can definitely consider giving the gift of chess by getting them a premium membership.

Below, you can refresh your memory on the fan-favorite bots that will be back during this month.

ChessGPT

ChessGPT is the most sophisticated and modern language model designed to deliver the smoothest, most realistic chess conversation experiences.

Deadlost

Grandpa Gambit

Playing strength: 1200.

Grandpa Gambit is a lifelong chess player known to regale his opponents with a chess anecdote of his past… or two. Ready to take a trip down memory lane?

A new fashion trend has Isla feeling alive! Chunky boots, thrifted dress, and a white streak in her hair—she’s loving the Franken-vibes!

Mittens

Mittens likes chess… but how good is she?
