Getting started

What is GamingBox?

GamingBox is a free online games platform where you play chess, Chinese chess, poker and dozens of card and board games — live against real players or offline vs AI. No download, and no real-money gambling.

Do I need an account?

You can browse every game freely. Sign in with Google, email or as a guest to save your gold, ELO, achievements and match history across devices.

Learning a new game

Every game has a built-in step-by-step tutorial and a practice-vs-AI mode. Open any game's “How to play” guide before your first match.

Playing online

Live rooms & matchmaking

Tap Play now for instant matchmaking, or create a room and share the link to play a friend. Creating and joining rooms is always free.

Practice vs AI

Chess and Chinese chess include an adjustable AI opponent, so you can train any time without waiting for a human.

Fair matchmaking & ELO

Wins and losses update your ELO rating (K=32). The medal next to your name — Bronze to Grandmaster — is derived from that rating.

Gold & rewards

How gold works

Gold is the in-game currency for match entries. Creating, joining or cancelling a room is free; gold only moves when a game ends — the winner takes 90%.

Earning free gold

Claim the daily reward, spin the Lucky Wheel three times a day, finish quests, and win matches to top up your balance.

Gems & speed-ups

Gems are a premium currency that instantly solve resource problems — convert them to gold or skip timed tasks whenever you're short.

Account & fair play

Are guest accounts permanent?

No — a guest account lives in your browser storage. Link Google, Facebook, email or phone to keep your ELO, gold and titles long-term.

Community & conduct

No cheating, bots or abusive chat in PvP. You can report or block any player, and blocked players disappear from every channel.

Is this real-money gambling?

No. Gold and gems have no cash value and can't be withdrawn or exchanged for money. Every game is for entertainment only.
