Chess Tutor 1

Home > Browse Our Collection > Software > Sinclair ZX Spectrum > Chess Tutor 1

Chess Tutor is a new way of learning all about chess - using your ZX Spectrum.

It starts from the very beginning by teaching you about the chess pieces and the way they move - including castling, en passant, promotion, check, checkmate, stalemate and perpetual check.

Then it teaches you the basic tactics - pins, forks, double attacks and skewers.

There are over 120 exercises and over 200 questions for you to answer - with demonstrations and hints from your ZX Spectrum when you want them. You can choose which parts of the course you want - and even experienced players may be surprised at what they can learn from Chess Tutor.
