Description
About This Game
Includes Battle Chess: Enhanced!
The most challenging game on Earth comes to life in Battle Chess. An entire medieval world at war is reflected on the checkered field.
Everyone who's ever had a knight take a pawn, has seen that capture as more than one piece replacing another on the board. In players' minds, the bold knight, resplendent in his armor of silver or ebon, sallies forth and slays the foul foot soldier. Combat, mortal combat, lies in the heart and soul of chess, but this aspect of it could only live in the mind's eye – until now!
- Play against the computer or your friends, or let the computer play against itself
- 10 levels of play challenge even the most sophisticated player
- Amusing chess piece animations
- A challenging AI with over 30,000 moves
