How Roquer works

1. Find a spot — Browse the ChessGrid map to discover chess tables, parks, cafes, and clubs near you.
2. Play a game — Use Roquer’s built-in chess clock or log a game you played with a physical clock.
3. Share the result — Your opponent enters a 6-digit claim code (or scans a QR code) to get credit for the game.
4. Climb the leaderboard — Every spot has its own leaderboard. The more you play, the higher you climb.

No club membership required. No tournament fees. Just sit down and play.
