It's big fun definetely, at least for the first time, until you know all the
dog's comments. Too bad that there is no english version AFAIK.

For example, once in while after you started a game, the dog appears and says:
"Oh, it's you again... I was hoping for game of chess!"

The GUI is directed at humans who want to play, and is very well done for that
purpose. Imports and writes PGN. Screen resolution is 800*600 (only), but looks
ok.

The engine is of Ch.Donninger, very similar to Nimzo 7.32 and Nimzo 8. It
inlcudes some of his special NCD endgame tables even. Tactically extremely
strong if you don't reduce the strength. Here are several test results for
comparison:

("S.Hund" = Schach dem Schweinehund = El Perro)
