Icarus

 

Welcome to Icarus!

Why play another game of chess against a machine? Icarus connects you to the Internet Chess Club, where you always find a challenging opponent for a game--day or night!

Icarus is the easiest-to-use internet chess application ever, with wizards and tutorials to help you get started playing chess on the internet.

  
               
               
               
               
               
               
               
               

Remember, Icarus is Shareware--if you plan to keep it, please purchase your copy. You can purchase your copy for just US$20; when you do, you'll receive a 16-digit purchase code that unlocks the ability to download additional features--more graphics, additional sounds and the latest Icarus extensions. (The purchase code will be valid for all future versions of Icarus, so hang on to it.) You'll also automatically be added to random's mailing list of Icarus users, so you'll get notified when new versions and new features are released.
