    A full-featured chess game... But it's flawed in a lot of little ways, and these little flaws add up. [July 2003, p.93]

    Even given the varied gameplay in the single-player component, Chessmaster's online support is perhaps its most appealing feature, at least in theory.

    Anyone with even a slight interest in chess owes it to themselves to check out Chessmaster. There really is no better teacher, mentor, or opponent (that's not a human, of course) out there.
