CHESSMASTER: Game Boy Color Used

Chessmaster for Gameboy has the same chess engine as the PC and Mac versions. I play it all the time, keeping my game sharp, and improving my skills. It's the best alternative when there's no computer access or nobody to play. I take it travelling with me and anytime I know I'll be stuck someplace waiting. And people don't look at you funny when they find out it's chess instead of Donkey Kong or Pac-Man!

Overall, I would rate this game quite highly but there is one major problem with it - if you are playing at higher levels, the time the computer takes to respond can be lengthy - and if you force the computer to make its move quickly, it gets confused and makes really stupid moves (for example, giving-up its Queen).

I like the retro feel to this game and I also Appreciate that it has quite a good engine, especially for a GBC game.
