"... and a player without a legal play loses..." That's more like stalemate, not zugzwang. Edit: Pardon my idiocy. Stalemate is obviously not a loss in chess. So I guess that no-pass go is like neither of these things. In zugzwang you have legal moves - just none are good for you and all lead to a loss given perfect play. |

That's exactly what it means to be in a lost position; all moves lose. A lost position is only Zugzwang though if the same position with the opponent to move is not lost.
