This new title, developed by Titus, combines the latest graphics technology, animation and chess algorithm to produce a stunningly attractive and highly powerful chess simulation.Virtual Chess is the first chess simulator to provide a real-time, high-resolution 3D interface for both VGA and Super VGA.
All 3D chess pieces are Silicon Graphics modeled and allow you to zoom in and out, rotate the board and observe the chess pieces at any angle.
Plus you get to select from four highly-styled and recognizable sets in three different sizes.But this is more than just a beautiful looking game - it has brains ! Virtual Chess is based on the Ecume chess engine.

The Ecume base allows Virtual Chess to make plans and apply them.
This "thinking" feature combined with an optimized assembly chess engine makes Virtual Chess a master in tactics.
