Bay Area, California – August 27, 2026 – House Of The QR Code™ has launched NovaBeam OS Aura Chess — Champion Test Edition, a browser-based chess challenge designed to test players against the powerful Stockfish 18 chess engine.
The challenge is simple:
Can you survive Stockfish 18?
Champion Test Edition places players into Full Boss Mode, where there are no hints and no simplified opponent. Players must rely entirely on their own chess knowledge, strategy, tactics, and decisionmaking.
“NovaBeam OS Aura Chess is about giving people a challenge they can immediately understand,” said
Tyrone M. Sanders, Co-founder of House Of The QR Code™. “You face AURA, play against Stockfish 18, and find out how far your chess skills can take you.”
The browser-based experience combines competitive computer chess with the visual identity of AURA, the cybernetic digital character associated with NovaBeam OS Aura™.
Champion Test Edition Features
The project is built around a focused competitive experience rather than traditional casual play. Players can return repeatedly to improve their performance and test different strategies against the engine.
The central message behind the campaign is:
CAN YOU SURVIVE STOCKFISH 18?
NovaBeam OS Aura Chess — Champion Test Edition is part of the broader NovaBeam OS Aura™ technology ecosystem developed by House Of The QR Code™.
The project was developed under the direction of Co-founder Tyrone M. Sanders and Co-founder Nathan E. Sanders.
Take the Champion Test
Players can visit the official NovaBeam OS Aura Chess — Champion Test Edition website and challenge Stockfish 18 in Full Boss Mode.
Full Boss Mode. No hints. One challenge: survive.
