a Mac Classic (as opposed to a Classic II or Color Classic) has a 68000
chip (not even 68020) which limits your options quite a bit.
However, both GNUChess (free) and Checkmate (cheap)
will work for you - both will run on a Mac Plus.

For GNUChess, go to:
http://www.gambitsoft.com/mac.htm
(note - everything else here requires at least a 68020 chip)

For Checkmate, go to:
http://www.mac-o-rama.net/
and put "checkmate" in the search box. It is $10 plus S&H, tax.
