Camille Queen Of Chess Bots

Camille Queen of Chess bots is a chess game built around creating and playing against rule-driven opponents. Begin with a roster of bots with distinct playing styles, or design your own—from a single rule to a plan with phases and conditions—and shape how each one approaches the board. Create bots from a plain-language description using an online LLM, or use a Local LLM on your machine. You can also build or edit bots in the graphic editor, then play with the native Camille engine or compatible UCI engines. The game can be played offline without an account or an always-online requirement.

Adjust opponent strength with Elo settings or rules that shape a bot’s style. The game also supports running multiple engines, switching between them, and sharing bots you create with other players.

Gameplay and features

• Create and customize bots: Build a bot from scratch in the graphic editor or refine an existing one, using anything from a simple rule to a layered plan with phases and conditions.
• Generate bots with language models: Describe a playing style in plain language to create a prompt for an online LLM, or use a Local LLM on your machine. Copy the generated bot back into the game.
• Choose an engine: Play with the native Camille engine or use UCI engines such as Stockfish, Maia, or Rodent, controlling each as far as its capabilities allow.
• Shape opponent styles and strength: Bots follow rules that define their personalities, while Elo settings and restrictions let you adjust their strength and playing style.
• Play offline and share creations: Play offline without an account or an always-online requirement, and share bots you have created with other players.
