Go up one level in this thread


I bought the previous two iterations of Virtual Chess. The engine plays very
human-like chess. However, the interface on VC II was very buggy. Many previous
users were dissatisfied (including yours truly), and pestered Titus for a bug
fix. It never came. So I think nobody is in a hurry to buy this program.

It pains me to say all this, because the programmer of the engine is a really
nice guy. I think though that Titus has mis-handled the development, support and
marketing of this program.
