Where will you be able to play chess on the ceiling? – Government Technology

Category: Chess

Anyone who saw Netflixs smash hit TV series The Queens Gambit will remember when main character and chess prodigy Beth Harmon sees and plays chess on the ceiling in her mind. If anyone actually wanted to try that out, now you can.

Netflix recently announced that one of its new mobile games, The Queens Gambit Chess, will be a chess game based on the popular series. And just like Harmon, players will be able to duke it out on the ceiling if they so choose.

There are currently 22 casual mobile games available, but the release of The Queens Gambit Chess as well as Nailed It!: Baking Bash, both slotted for release later this year, will be the first ones based on Netflixs own content. The streamer is counting on these games to entice new subscribers in addition to retaining current ones as the streaming wars continue to heat up. The company saw its first drop in subscriber numbers in a decade earlier this year, a trend that is expected to continue in the near future.
