The moment reaches farther than the action.
The game begins digitally, but the relationship belongs to two Houses. Age rules, invitations and the moment of stopping survive even when licensed play opens somewhere else.

08 / Across the street or across the board
The House Game Room
Two Houses can play chess together—or open the existing GAMES service in context.
You may know this feeling
For anyone whose best online game ended with a real rematch across the street.
The real moment
The Blue Door challenges The Courtyard House. MYHOUSE can host a simple shared chess board, or bring the right residents into GAMES. Invitations and safety remain with the Houses; GAMES opens the connected room and licensed gameplay remains with its publisher.
One House. A much wider life.
It can connect cousins, neighbours, clubs and distant grandparents without forcing any of them into a public gaming identity.
