The Chessmaster
Game Boy (Platform)Game Boy Color (Platform)Game Gear (Platform)Nintendo Entertainment System (Platform)Super Nintendo Entertainment System (Platform)
An updated version of the original Chessmaster 2000 for early home consoles and handhelds.
Overview
The Chessmaster is a chess simulator for consoles noted for its proficient AI. This NES/SNES/GB/GG incarnation of Chessmaster drops the 2000 from the original's name. It allows players to view the board from a 2D or 3D perspective, to select between the classic Staunton chess pieces or with fantasy-themed pieces (similar to those used in Battle Chess (Game)) as well as several other options to customize play. Tutorials are available, as are move hints and a second player mode. This version of Chessmaster should not be mistaken for the other entries in the series, of which there are over a dozen.
