    If you want a great chess program, look no further. If you want to blow stuff up/read an engrossing storyline/look at cutting edge graphics, then why are you even reading this?

    Not the "perfect" chess game, but certainly sufficient. I'd rate it as an 8.

    Whether you’re new to the game or a member of the old high-school chess club, you’ll find the Chessmaster series still holds the crown as “King” of the sixty-four-squared board.

    It's a graphically functional, perfectly playable plug-in for those who want a quick game of chess. Nothing more, nothing less. Just chess.

    The beating heart of chess is laid bare with such care that aspiring Kasparovs might yet be lured from the PC dungeon.
