Chessmaster, The

An ancient game that has lost none of its charm over the years. A perfect balance expressed in the confrontation of two armies. It's like hearing the trumpets of elephants and the clash of spears when you sit down at the board. On 64 squares, there is room for beauty and drama, elegance and comedy, mind games and animal aggression. The rules are deceptively simple: rook forward, bishop diagonally, knight with the letter 'G', queen as bishop + rook. The pawn is one square forward (the first move can be two) and hits diagonally. King on all sides, but only one square. The game is perfectly adapted to the NES: the adjustable difficulty level (Select) is well combined with a pleasant design and calm music.
