PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
ONE LINER:
Mouse-driven educational chess program
SHORT DESCRIPTION:
K-Chess is an educational Chess program which shows its own calculations
as it is working. It has various types of hints and help, several modes
of play, move undo and redo, and is fully keyboard or mouse controlled.
MEDIUM DESCRIPTION:
K-Chess is a Chess program which allows play between two players, a player
and the computer, or the computer against itself. It has full keyboard
and mouse control, context-sensitive help, several types of hints, and
on-screen calculation of the best moves. Games can be printed and saved.
K-Chess shows where a piece can move, and what pieces threaten a square.
It also offers suggested moves, or can make a move for you. Best lines
of attack are displayed for both players several moves ahead. And any
move can be taken back or replayed right back to the start of the game.
LONG DESCRIPTION:
K-Chess is a flexible Chess program which actually lets you see what it is
doing, and so helps you to learn to play better. The computer will help
you in several ways, such as showing where a piece can move, what pieces
are threatening a particular square, and give a suggested next move or
even play your move for you. Best lines of attack are displayed for both
players for several moves ahead. Multi level undo and redo is also
available so that moves may be reviewed and/or replayed at any time.
The game can be between two players, one player and the computer, or the
computer against itself. There is full keyboard and mouse control, and
context-sensitive help. Games may be printed out in full, and saved to
disk for later retrieval.
The game is customisable, allowing various restrictions on playing time,
different hinting levels, and you can change the colours displayed.
