Many different games are developed and presented to our attention nowadays. They are so various and manifold that it is not easy to choose the most appropriate and captivating for you. Nevertheless, there are some classical games, which are always on the top of popularity. The program "Grand Master Chess", as it follows from the name, presents a recurrent version of the good old chess.
This ancient game, which was conceived in India about two hundreds years ago, continues arousing relentless people's interest all around the world. That's why the chess was one of the first games, which got the computer's embodiment. As a matter of fact, the first chess program was written even before computers were actually invented. Many different computer chess programs were developed since then. Some of them are created for professionals, some of them are for beginners, Very simple programs exist along with sophisticated and spectacle ones. At any case, nowadays we have all possibilities to choose those computer's versions, which the most closely correspond your demands and interests. Let's now move on to Grand Master Chess and regard its advantages and disadvantages comparing with other computer chess programs. The first thing, which impressed me, was the interface of this program. It is really very well-done and I'm sure you'll also appreciate it as me. Moreover, if you prefer the most realistic view, you can use an option "3D view". In this way, you'll have the impression that you are sitting in front of a chess-board, but not your computer.
You can use this game not only to play with your computer but also with other players. If you want to compete with other people, you should choose the option "Net game", which will give you this possibility. Similarly, you'll be able to set up the music you prefer, visual effects and so on.
In this way, I think that everything concerning the interface of this program and other details connected with Grand Master Chess outward are on the top level. To estimate other abilities of this game I had to address to a professional of chess that was my father. He played the game several times and, in general, he was satisfied with the level of Grand Master Chess' skills, but at the same time, he revealed some disadvantages of this program. Thus, it is impossible to set up and solve, so called, chess's problems, because you can't place chess pieces as you want, but just start the party from the very beginning. Then, there is not one important chess rule, which concludes in the following: the repeated three times position gives a draw game according to one player's demand. As for other features of Grand Master Chess, I should say, that it was impossible to estimate some of them, because the trial version, which I used, had some limitations. In such a way, to enjoy this program in full measure, you can buy it at relatively fare price of $14.95. From my point of view, Grand Master Chess is smart and challenging, creating an enjoyable experience for any chess player.
