By Jessica Conte


It used to be in the past that you would need to find a partner if you want to enjoy a game of chess, but today, you can play chess against the computer without or with another person, as there are special computer software that allows you to play chess. Such is the progress of technology today that computer intelligence has risen to that level of sophistication to allow a machine to have a game of chess with a human. These chess software became even more famous when the machine defeated a renowned chess expert 10 years ago.

You can opt to play chess against a computer using the Chinese or Western version of chess, which both are easily available on the Internet. There are many game websites which offer the games software free to be downloaded to encourage chess enthusiasts to play chess against the computer online anytime or anywhere to the players' convenience.

There are two ways of playing chess. First you might want to play chess against computer easy mode. The easy mode lets you enjoy a game of chess without the pressures or the difficulties of playing against a chess master. On the other hand, if you want a really good game with a twist of challenge or difficulty, then you should play chess against computer master difficulty. Be careful though, you might feel frustrated or angry at the AI because these programs are just very good and can think faster than a normal human would.

When playing Chinese chess against the computer, there will be minor differences that are obvious as there are more pieces in Chinese chess; however, the piece movements are similar in both Chinese and Western chess.

Though challenging, chess is found to be very enjoyable by the young and old alike; it not only develops one's mind and analytical skills, chess can also improve one's management skills as you learn to manipulate and control your 'resources' in the game. Learning to play chess will be easy as you have a very patient and good teacher - the computer. You only need to make time and put in a bit of commitment to learn the game well. Then you can play chess against the computer, your 'teacher' to check your learning curve.
