I ended up buying Hexacto’s Kasparov Chessmate yesterday thanks to your great review. I always liked chess even though I cannot give it enough time to play a real decent game. I have Fritz 8 on both PC and PPC (also Shredder and almost all the PPC chess games).

When I just want to unwind and not hunker down and concentrate on a game of chess (after a hard day of work) I choose one of the lower playing levels in order to relax. I find that a major problem with all these games is that at these lower levels all these programs (and I’ve tried most of them) tend to commit Hari-Kari when they’re positions are in jeopardy - sometimes at a very early stage in the game. Hexacto’s is the first chess game that I’ve found that will play a decent game of chess at one of the lower levels with no suicidal actions. – Thanks -
