Hoyle Majestic Chess
Chess beautifully and creatively brought to a newcomer of the game.
Featuring a unique Adventure mode which will teach the basics of Chess as you travel across the countryside challenging creatures of fantasy and lore to unravel the secrets of this classic game.
Single player and Multi-player capabilities allow for limitless play beyond the adventure where the player can further enhance their skills.
During your Single Player encounter you'll be allowed an Opening Book, describing common game starting maneuvers and who made them famous. An intelligent advice system provides suggestions using natural speak informing you of what move would be best and why. As well as Annotations section which lets you take your own notes to reference later. All of these combined provide a very natural way to learn and progress your skills while having fun.
Multi-player consisted of a lobby system with user accounts hosted by Sierra (publisher for the game). Unfortunately, the service appears to no longer be supported and therefor has rendered Multi-player unplayable.*
