The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A measured, thoughtful chess experience that lets you study openings and test your skill against a wide range of computer opponents at your own pace.

About
Choose from 24 animated chess sets, including Mycenae, Egyptian, Isle of Lewis, and Stanton in Chessmaster II, a chess strategy board game. Try to checkmate your friends, or challenge one of the 64 computer opponents (each with a different style of play and varying degrees of skill), or try to beat one of the 30 Grandmaster profiles. You'll never miss an opening in the 3D mode, since you can rotate the camera to any angle you want. Or, if you prefer, play on a flat 2D board. Chessmaster II brings the thrills and challenges of chess to life.
