Chessmaster

Description

From the Manufacturer The world's most-respected chess program invites everyone to play history's greatest game. With over 4 million sold Chessmaster has become the perfect chess companion for all age groups and skill levels. Review: Good for keeping chess-playing skills sharp - Overall, I would rate this game quite highly but there is one major problem with it - if you are playing at higher levels, the time the computer takes to respond can be lengthy - and if you force the computer to make its move quickly, it gets confused and makes really stupid moves (for example, giving-up its Queen). Review: The best portable chess player around - Chessmaster for Gameboy has the same chess engine as the PC and Mac versions. I play it all the time, keeping my game sharp, and improving my skills. It's the best alternative when there's no computer access or nobody to play. I take it travelling with me and anytime I know I'll be stuck someplace waiting. And people don't look at you funny when they find out it's chess instead of Donkey Kong or Pac-Man!
