I used to play a lot this game. Was my first electronic chess I played. Graphics in 3d are cool, but I remember toggling 2d always to play a serious game. It was interesting playing vs my commodore, on hard levels is a very solid oponent.

I would bet money this Chessmaster could beat the hell out of Chessmaster 10, 000 or whatever is out now... Though not the best on the c64/128.. That is Colossus 4
