Progress Chess

Great game. I love the wait I have to do before the computer makes their move. I can think on their time and at the same time immerse myself as though I'm in a real game. Most bots online don't have delays so this is a 10/10 for me

Endlich das Schachprogramm auf Steam, das ich lange gesucht habe. Lass mich erklären: Ich besitze heute noch auf DVD "Grandmaster 10th Edition" von Ubisoft (mein aktueller PC hat kein DVD-Laufwerk mehr). Was mir an Chessmaster gut gefallen hat, waren die simulierten menschlichen Gegner mit unterschiedlichen Spielstilen und Elo-Wertungen, sowie die Möglichkeit von Wertungsspielen, aus denen sich dann im Laufe der Zeit eine eigene Elo-Wertung ergibt. Genau das ist "Progress Chess". Zusätzlich gibt es Analyse- und Trainingsmodi, Turniere, Partien werden gespeichert und können ausgegeben werden. Für mich als Gelegenheitsspieler, den Online-Partien mit menschlichen Gegnern stressen und der keine nervigen Werbeeinblendungen mag, genau die richtige Lösung zu einem fairen Preis, klare Empfehlung!

Great chess game

I believe this game is truly outstanding — it’s clear that the design team has put a lot of thought into many aspects. In the past, I mainly used GM11 and customized several engines, but having too many features often meant spending excessive time on parameter settings and opening book creation, which took away from the joy of simply playing chess. One moment that impressed me was my first game in the train scene: despite the noisy environment, I unexpectedly felt relaxed. From the engine perspective, I hope future development moves toward more human-like play. There are already plenty of “god-like” engines, but what makes the experience engaging are the occasional mistakes and the brilliant recoveries. On the graphics side, some reflections on my computer are too strong. I would like to see options for adjusting color saturation and contrast. After changing the perspective and camera angle, I also hope each scene can be saved and reset individually. In addition, I’d love to see a new gameplay feature: a scene where identical opening lines can be assigned to different characters. For example, I could set the same opening sequence but choose different characters, so the game feels unique depending on who is playing. The opening line could be selected from any node in the tree-structured opening book. Once the game begins, both sides must play through the designated moves, rather than starting directly from the chosen position. The selected node could be saved to a character, with each character able to store multiple nodes. I could also move or copy opening lines between characters. When editing, the interface would automatically expand to the previously saved node, making it easier to continue from where I left off.

Очень хорошие шахматы с удобным интерфейсом. В них приятно играть в отличии от др. проектов в 3D. Авторы активно развивают свой продукт. С каждым обновлением программа становиться все лучше и лучше - это очень заметно.

Really sloppily made AI game. Explanations are confusing or don't match the images shown. The opponents are, again, badly made AI pictures with strange, awkward voicing. Poor UI. Just felt really poor quality.

Spielstärke und Sprache sollten einstellbar sein. Deutlich mehr Schachstellung bezogene Kommentare wären schön. Ansonsten gefällt mir das Programm ganz gut.

Perfect

Trop gourmand pour un jeu d'echec

Шахматы я люблю. Учился и у учусь играть сам. Игра понравилась. Приятная и ламповая. Боты играют интересно. Иногда не хватает счетчика взятых фигур. Стоит игра копейки
