Chess Titans for Windows

3D Computer Chess

Chess Titans, a free-to play 3D chess simulation for Windows computers, is available. It was developed by David Morris and used to be part the Microsoft entertainment package. It is still a reliable way of playing chess, even though it is no longer included in Windows after 7.

The graphics are outstanding, even though the game was designed for Vista. The 3D design of Titans is stunning and keeps it on par with modern competition.

Titans has three themes, which aren't very special but make it more enjoyable to play. The game's development has ended, so don't expect any new improvements to its appearance.

This program plays just like any other chess program. It has a great AI that can handle ten levels of difficulty. The easiest level is for beginners, while the most difficult is for experts.

Clicking on a piece of the board will highlight all possible moves. You can also play against an opponent in a specific mode. Unfortunately, there is no online multiplayer. The program saves all your wins and loses.

Jose Chess is another option for those who feel the need to play chess. The graphics are not as good as Chess Titan. It does provide many technical enhancements to those who know how to adjust software settings.

War Chess retains the basic rules of the game, but it puts you in a new environment. There are many modes of play, each with its own challenges. These animations are unique and beautiful, but you will need to pay for them after your trial ends.

The experience of playing Titans was great. The pieces are still beautiful, even though they were made in the year 2000. The engine feels almost real, and the AI is well-designed to provide the right challenge. It's a great idea to grab this old-fashioned strategy game, which can still be downloaded for Windows 8 or 10.
