Dr. Chess Game Features

This is a standard free desktop PC game of digital chess. It offers a single player mode, a hot-seat multiplayer mode and a ranked multiplayer.

The Ai is quite challenging and is, in fact, impossible to defeat if you are a beginner. So far, I have seen the AI employ renowned formations like the Sicilian Dragon and two-knights defense. In addition, I was never able to bait the AI with classic traps like the not-so-popular mammoth trap. I had to bleed half of my brain’s juice out to finally score a win.

Dr. Chess Desktop could use multiple Ai difficulties, but it is not that much of an issue, thanks to the ranked multiplayer mode. In this mode, players are rated from class F to class S depending on the number of points they accumulate. Since points are deducted for every defeat and increased for every win, you can rest assured that highly skilled players will be filtered out of the low-rank pool. In the end, you will only be facing opponents of the same skill.

You will be facing different types of opponents during your first games. Personally, I came across players who are well-versed with basic tactics like pin and fork check. However, I also came across people who move their A pawn or H pawn as first moves, moves that are notoriously useless as opening moves.

No matter your skill range in chess is, Dr. Chess Desktop will be there to treat your chess craving. Get your Dr. Chess Download now! And then try out some more Board Games like Backgammon Plus and Ludo King!
