How it feels

a realistic and customizable chess game with animated pieces and the option to throw them off the board in frustration.

What players say

Players appreciate the many board and piece customizations, strong AI engines like Rybka, and animated pieces, but note basic graphics and a bug that prevents castling. Online play requires entering a friend's IP address, and LAN reportedly does not work.
