Rating: Summary: Battle Chess COLLECTION is better Review: Battle Chess is a great game, but don't buy this version. Buy the *Collection* instead. It has 4 games in one: Battle Chess(DOS), Chinese Chess(DOS), Battle Chess Enhanced(WindowsVGA), and Battle Chess 4000(WindowsS-VGA). The last two games, graphically, are outstanding and will work flawlessly with Windows 95/98.

Rating: Summary: Best Animated Chess Game Review: Battle Chess is an excellent game. Downloading onto our Windows 98 was a bit tedious but once we read the Read Me ( START, RUN, then type D:/ )from the CD and learned the right way to download it, we haven't had a problem with it. Don't use the auto install window that pops up. The Battle Graphics are fun to watch even when you are losing.....badly. The game is very smart, even on level 1 setting.

Rating: Summary: Do not buy this CD-ROM Review: I don't know what you are expecting. I don't know what you hope Battle Chess will be. I don't know how low your expectations are. But whatever your answers to those questions are, DO NOT BUY THIS CD. It is awful. I had one years ago that I played on my old MacIntosh, and my kids would delight in watching the pawns joust with one another and the queen zapping other players. But, unbelieveably, the graphics have gotten worse. It is too fast, all the action occurs without any drama. The color almost spoils it. I was so disappointed, and my children, who were looking forward to playing chess with this program, were immediately disinterested.This CD is worse than it was 8 years ago.
Rating: Summary: Do not buy this CD-ROM Review: Well, actually, I enjoy this game VERY much. But despite what you might read here (and hopefully it's corrected soon) this game is NOT meant for Win 2000 or WinME. I already had this game on a Win95 Machine, but when I traded up(?) to a WinME system, I lost ANY and ALL games that run under DOS with sounds. Anywhat, if you're running Win98 or earlier, you will enjoy this game.

Rating: Summary: dos games under win2k/me/xp Review: You can probably use this game under WinME, etc. I've noticed that, by default, the Soundblaster emulation is not installed for some cards. I had to do this manually for my motherboard's sound, for example.
