Synopsis

Chess Player 2150 is a chess program which played well against the other chess programs of the day and won the 1989 British Open Personal Computer Chess Championship (according to a post in ST Report International Online Magazine, November 13, 1992, No.8.45). Built into the program is a pull-down menu, giving it's performance against Chessmaster 2000, Chessmaster 2100 and Colossus X, in 10 games apiece.

The game was designed to improve as it played, so over time a game that played against good players would be much better than when it first began. Users have the option of saving, so that the gained intelligence isn't lost.

The game includes classic and whimsical chess pieces, one set includes farm animals (sheep pawns, dog rooks, horse knights, chicken bishops, cow queens, and pig kings). Another setting includes Science-Fiction pieces that look like aliens. The game can be played in 2D or 3D, and includes digitized speech.
