K-Chess for Windows

OVERVIEW
K-Chess for Windows is a simple, informative and enjoyable Chess
program.
K-Chess 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 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, right back to the start of
the game.
The game can be played between two players, one player and the
computer, or the computer against itself in Auto Play mode. There
is full keyboard and mouse control, and help. Games may be saved
to disk and reloaded at any time.
The game is customisable, allowing various restrictions on playing
time by game or by move, and tailoring of different hinting levels.

K-Chess for Windows runs on any Personal Computer running Windows
