Sanghaï Games Presents

Strategy meets precision.

ChessDarts is an original concept that fuses two iconic disciplines:
Chess, the timeless symbol of strategic thinking,
and Darts, the ultimate test of precision, control, and reactivity.

« To make a good move, thinking isn’t enough… you also have to aim right. »

« The strategic heart of the board. It all begins here… if you can hit it! »

A square with a “Double” zone

Sometimes you just have to stop and stare at the lines, they’re quite pretty.

A square with a “Triple

Triple combo! 2 moves + 3 extra darts… or an instant follow-up.

Spider Wire frame

Spider Wire tech: ultra-thin wiring, staple-free for clean shots and minimal bounce.

Board surface texture

Brand corner

Designed by ChessDarts™ – Born in France, crafted for global play.

The Chessboard Dartboard

Between skill and strategy: the chessboard becomes your target

ChessDarts uses an exclusive checkered dartboard, replicating the classic chessboard. Players can only move a piece after proving their accuracy by hitting the corresponding square with a dart.

  • 8×8 chessboard layout with 64 clearly marked squares, matching the traditional chess grid.
  • Built-in doubles and triples on every square, visually integrated without compromising the board’s clarity.

Simplified Rules

How to Play ChessDarts

Here’s how it works:

Throw 3 darts at the ChessDarts board.

You must then play a legal chess move on one of the squares you hit.

  • If you hit multiple different squares, you can choose between them.
  • If you hit a double or triple = bonus moves.
  • If none of the hit squares allow a legal move, you must skip your turn.

In check?

You must defend with a chess move — no darts allowed.

Victory Awaits

Like in any great chess match, the game ends with a checkmate, a draw, or resignation.
