A consultation game is a game in a game that can be influenced by decisions , in which several people lead the same party with the consent of all those involved and coordinate with each other. With a well-thought-out coordination of the people involved, the quality of the game can be significantly increased compared to the game being conducted by individuals.

The chess game is a well-suited board game for advisory games . In the past, counseling games were very popular, today they are less common. There are basically two possibilities of an advisory game: Either a stronger player, often a grandmaster , competes against a number of advising players who are individually inferior in skill level, or both parties to the chess game consist of groups of players advising one another. In the history of chess, for example, chess clubs or entire cities competed against each other in long-distance games , in which their best players discussed moves.

Closely related to consultation games is the joint analysis , which usually takes place after the game has ended by the players and lapwings involved. There even the thoughts of the other party are included in the decision-making process. For learners in particular, consultations in the game and analysis are a helpful tool to advance their own chess development. Computers can also be used as consulting partners.

Well-known consulting parties:

  • In some chess magazines the readers competed against chess computers or against grandmasters. In most cases, postcards were requested, on which the next train was indicated and contingent trains were possible. Prizes were raffled to avoid players falsifying their choice by submitting multiple entries with incorrect address details.
  • Readers of the Soviet youth newspaper Pionerskaya Pravda against ex-world champion Mikhail Tal , 1969: The readers' suggestions for moves were evaluated in the editorial office. The selected train was then passed on to Tal by telephone. The game is shown below as an example.
  • Kasparov versus the World . In this game, the then reigning world chess champion played via the Internet against the rest of the world, who were consulting in an Internet forum. Although four young chess talents suggested possible moves, the players were also allowed to suggest their own moves. On move 59, however, out of annoyance over a late move proposal by one of the chess talents, the "world" players agreed on a bad move that was not allowed. When voting, some players also reported a possibility of manipulating the vote so that a player could have multiple votes.
