- Program Title: SPRINGER version 1.0
- PC-SIG version 1
-
- SPRINGER offers the beginning to intermediate chess player 10 levels of
- difficulty and plenty of options.
-
- You can play against the computer, watch the computer play against
- itself, or play against another player while SPRINGER watches for
- illegal moves. You can take back a move you made, swap sides, and even
- interrupt the computer's thinking to force it to make a move. The
- maximum time SPRINGER takes to make a move varies from one second to a
- little over three minutes, depending on what level you are playing and
- your type of computer.
-
- For games that are saved on-disk, SPRINGER can do an "instant replay" of
- the entire game or allow you to replay each individual move one at a
- time. It will also print a list of moves for each chess game, or print
- a graphic display of the chess board at any time in the game. Pieces
- are selected and moved using the cursor pad, and on-line help is
- available for all options. You can play on either color or monochrome
- systems.
