Chess with a twist: All pieces come to life and take part in animated battles which ensue when one piece takes another. There is a different animation for each permutation, depending on which pieces are capturing or being captured.

You can also play in 2D without animation. The game's opening library includes 30,000 different moves, ensuring a variety of games will unfold across the 10 skill levels. Multi-player support can be extended to modem and/or serial port play.
