Editor's review of Chessmaster Challenge
When all is said and done, this chess sim makes a good choice for both novices and seasoned players alike. Graphically, Chessmaster Challenge is more impressive than you might expect, though the demo disables the music option. If you don't already know how to play chess, you'll appreciate the in-depth tutorial, but proficient players can go straight to either the various chess-related brainteasers or a head-to-head match. You can choose from a number of different cartoon headshots to represent you, and you can also handpick one of many opponents who are ranked by skill level. Customization options include the ability to adjust the volume of the sound effects, change chess sets, and play in windowed mode. If we had a complaint about Chessmaster Challenge, it would be with the one-hour trial period, which seems a bit short to us. If you enjoy chess or want to learn the ropes, there's no reason not to check out this game.
