Same here, and it's not only that:  The boards are totally messed up,
with many (columns of) fields being placed outside the printed area.
With pdflatex, the boards look okay, and pdffonts says:

$ pdffonts games.pdf

The [none] Type3 font looks a bit suspicious, skak20.600pk is the only
PK font included according to pdfTeX's font file list.
