Annotated Games
Tilburg Chess Notes
Independent chess culture from Tilburg

Games, read closely

A place for players to publish their own games, annotated in full — every move checked against the engine, the turning points drawn out, the lesson named.

The idea is simple: you bring the game and the thinking behind it, and we provide the template, the board diagrams, the space to publish, and editorial help shaping the story. A game earns its place here if it matters to the competition — or simply because it rewards a closer look.

Engines analyse deeply but rarely explain. That gap is what we fill: prose that is deep, accurate and to the point, with the critical alternatives not just named but shown and explained.
