Server Games using the Playchess App


Answer

If you regularly play games on the browser based Playchess App, the web app automatically saves your games to the “play.chessbase.com.games”. This database My Games can be loaded at a later date for analysis. However, to do this you require a ChessBase account.

Let’s say that you have played a game and would like to subsequently load the game. Load the MyGames app.

Go to Databases – Open database.

Now the database will appear. The databases “My Games” and the repertoire for white/black are always available. If you, for example, delete the database, the games are lost but the database will be created again once the next time that the app. is started.

Here we can see the database „play.chess.com.games“. The game list are loaded and displayed by double clicking on the database.

In the game list you will find a complete list of all games including player names and time controls which you have used to play on the Playchess Web App. By clicking on an entry the game is then loaded into the board window.

Tip: By clicking on the “Engine“ switch, you can use the chess engine to evaluate the current position on the board.

Under the notation window you will find tools for commenting on the loaded games. You can subsequently annotate the game on MyGames and then save the changes!
