EXCALIBUR CUTLASS TRAVEL CHESS is an ideal opponent. It is ready to play you at any time, as often as you like, at whatever level of skill you choose.
There are 72 levels and a MULTI-MOVE mode. MULTI-MOVE allows you to make moves for both sides. This is useful if you want to use the computer as a chessboard and referee for a game between yourself and a fried, or if you wish to enter a special sequence of moves, for example the moves of a particular chess opening or the moves of a game which you have found in a newspaper or a chess book.
If you set the computer on level 72 it can solve mate-in-2 problems (unless they involve a pawn promotion to a knight, bishop or rook.
