As someone that plays chess, this isnt my choice for a couple reasons.
While I beat it just fine on its highest setting, the problem is you have 3 valued pieces you arent allowed to lose, they are randomly a bishop, knight, rook, pawn, king or queen, now the problem i have is the computer even on low setting will gun for those pieces, if your valued knight is pinned thats it, youre losing it even if they sack their queen for it.
it doesnt end the game if you lose one, but it drops your score and makes you look poo, the thing is you have to pass every level with all 3 pieces alive each game if you want full marks, think there was something like 240 levels.
Honestly i dont see the point in playing when i cant make a brilliant play because one of the pieces i need to sacrifice is valued.
