CHESS ON SEVERAL LEVELS Available in two versions. The original, with levels 1-6 which uses standard notation for moves, presents illegal move if any other is entered and allows you to play black or white. The full screen is used and the machine code games give a very fast response. ZXchess II has seven levels, one of which, Lightning chess, will respond faster in end moves and opening book moves. The game, however, can recommend your best move and recognise stalemate. Both games will allow you to set up your own board pieces and start from there, thus allowing you to solve newspaper problems without waiting a week for the results. ZXchess II also allows you to copy the board on to a Sinclair printer or to store a game on to cassette. Artic Computing, author of ZXchess, can be reached at [redacted], ZXchess is £8 and ZXchess II £14. All prices in this review have been rounded-up to include VAT and postage where possible.
