Thank you for posting your question in Microsoft Community!
So you want to play Chess Titans on Windows 8.
If you take a look in the Windows Store app, there are several Chess games available there.
You can go to your Start screen by either clicking in the bottom left hand corner or pressing the Windows key, and then go to the Windows Store app.
Once in the Store, you can then search for apps by pressing Windows key + C and click Search in the Charms bar, and search for Chess games from there.
Note: The games from Windows 7 are not available by default in Windows 8. Keep checking the Windows Store for available games.
You may want to click here "Apps in the Windows Store" it tells us about variety of great apps available for Windows 8
Hope it helps!
Please keep us posted if you face Windows issue in future. We would be happy to help!

straight between the eyes..... Windows 8 SUCKS!!
it is not windows and it is not apple!!!
it is so primitive
and before asking to buy applications while removing chess titans and backgammon
please have a look and see how hideous your applications are
also you are no longer the sole operating system in the market!!!

Losing my favourite games, Office start package, Mediaplayer with possibility for playing of DVD' s- this could not be a good choice for me. And what do we receive in return: maybe better speed, but stronger control from Microsoft, and ugly tiles.
I do not understand why do we lose in Windows 8 these applications that we have paid buying Windows 7.
