The Zillions Grand
Chess Master!
This program brings the exciting new chess variant Grand Chess, invented by
Christian Freeling, to your Windows95/WindowsNT desktop.
It allows you to play Grand Chess against the computer whose strength you can
vary to your liking. You can also use it to play against another person, letting
the program operate as arbitrator and administrator. You can even let it
play all by itself.
The full version of Grand Chess costs US$19.95 for 1 user license. You can
try it out freely, but without registering you're only allowed 15 minutes
or 25 moves of play (whatever comes first) before the program quits.
You can try again, of course, as many times as you like.
After you've registered you can play without these limitations, and
you will be able to save a game (as many as you like) for achiving purposes or
to be resumed later on.
