  It's a ripoff. It's ridiculously expensive at $80 and the overall software quality is very low. When I spend $80 on a game, I expect that software to be damn perfect. But the interface is cryptic and there are a lot of bugs. You can easily put the program in a state where you don't know what's happening. I've had to kill the running process because it was stuck and I couldn't cancel whatever it was it was doing. I guess you're paying for the chess engine or something? But there's the Stockfish engine that's free, is a stronger player and gives you more information. There are many ridiculous things about this program. There's this Friend mode where the program will match your playing strength. That's actually a really good feature and it's very good at playing you so you'll win one game, lost one game, win one, lose one. So you can get better without becoming too demoralized and depressed (I'll leave the question of whether it's enabling an unhealthy psychological behavior). The problem is that it also matches the time that you take to move. So if you're just playing casually and you leave it and go off and make dinner or something and come back an hour later and make your move, you're going to have to wait an hour for that thing to get off its ass and make its move. It's so absurd! It has a Rated mode where you play with chess clocks against the computer, but the lowest rating it plays at is 1096, which is pretty strong for an amateur. I've played about 50 games in this mode and it roundly kicks my ass every time. The program rates me at about 750-800. If you want good value for your money look elsewhere. If you really want to buy this software, at least buy it directly from them. It's the exact same price, but the Steam version is crippled with fewer features. That's what their own support team told me. For example, online help is not available. Yes, that's right. There is no help within the program. You have to go trawling the internet to find some chickenscratched pdf file where you spend more time trawling through and when you find what you were looking for, you're sorry that you even bothered. Ignore my 400+ hours play time. I just leave it on in the background all the time.

  Just bought this to improve my chess. Tried for over 10 hours to get certain functions to work. Only to discover that this is a steam edition.... Which means that there are some features missing that are quite essential in my opinion. After discovering this i wanted a refund because clearly this wasn't what i had in mind. Buying a limited version paying the exact same price as the complete version on chessbase. But after spending more than 10 hours trying to figure this game out. I wasn't eligible for a refund. Absolute waste of money and time. Get your chess software from a certified place rather than this shithole (first time, problems to be honest). This game is a scam. DONT BUY ITTTT

  Do not buy this game. It is the stripped down version. You will not be able to access Gamebase.com for training or etc. a lot of tabs and info is faded. Not the full game... I didn't know that until after 2 hours which is the limit of refund... So disappointed in Steam... :(

  Very good if you only buy for GUI. It is generally good. Bur price can be salty. Wouldn't be worth to pay more than 10 dollars.
