I've made a website where you can play against 118 different chess engines in your browser

Hi everyone,

Link: https://www.jimmyrustles.com/ccrlchallenger

I've been working on this project for the past few weeks. It's a website that allows you to play against engines from the CCRL in your browser. I thought it'd be fun to be able to play against CCRL engines without having to download and run them, so I made this site.

There are 118 different open source engines, all taken from the CCRL. I tried to include as many engines as I possibly could, but I could only include engines with Windows releases and permissive licenses that passed testing, which left me with 118 engines.

You can give the engine 1ms to 5 seconds of move time and play the games completely in the browser.

Please try it out and let me know what you think.

It's nice

its good but it would be better if we could get pgns of games we played

Adding PGN output is on the to-do list. :)

Are you playing on mobile? It's a lot better on desktop, I'm still trying to make it more playable on mobile.

I did not know a 2000 chess engine gives away pieces. I expected it to play like a 2100 FIDE rated. Woahh.

I'm guessing you were playing BBC. I noticed that it hangs its pieces and generally plays poorly. No idea how it got such a high rating.
