Anichess is a Web3-powered chess game built on a foundation and used on a browser.
Developed by Animoca Brands – in partnership with Chess.com and supported by chess guru Magnus Carlsen, players bring blockchain-powered variants of the popular board game with strategic twists in spelling. The spell allows players to make major changes to the game rather than taking action, such as converting any work into a knight, snatching the bishop over friendly fragments, or swapping works with one of the opponents.
Every spell requires mana casting, and the player not only has to adapt to the challenges of the chess game, where everything changes the heartbeat, but also needs a management mana system, which can be the key between victory and failure.

M8 is a link point system that was introduced in April 2025.
The M8 system is based on basics, tracks Anichess player activities and rewards them with the same name M8 to log in every day, participate in fast and ranking matches, and win against opponents. The more M8 you collect, the higher your rankings will be in the game – you can ask for more M8s every day.
M8 acts as the ranking system for Anichess. The top 64 players in Season 4 (determined by their M8 score) will be eligible for the Season 4 playoffs, where they will compete for a portion of the $10,000 $C token reward pool.
