On public computers in libraries, Internet cafés, youth hostels and so on it is usually not possible to install a chess game viewer like ChessBase, Chess Assistant or SCID. If you would like to replay chess games anyway, you can post or upload them here provided that the game(s) are in PGN format. If you were searching for a web chess replay for your own blog, look here!

In order to avoid heavy server load and client-side busy script errors, file size is restricted to 10 MB. This covers most of the game databases offered for download throughout the Internet. But even with a few hundred games there may be some seconds delay. Please be patient! Remark that I switched to the new ChessBase reader and the result page opens a new browser tab now. This change became necessary in order to improve the usability on mobile devices.

PGN is the usual format to distribute chess games through the Internet and I suppose that most of you are familiar with it. For those not here is a short explanation: it is a a simple text file where games are stored in a human as well as machine readable manner. Whenever you find something like this, you can post it here:

The game must have one header line at least otherwise it won’t get parsed!
