Treebeard Chess Engine

Post by cornetmike »

I'm curious about this chess engine. What can you experts tell me about it? It seems to be available commercially at amazon.com under the name "Tournament Chess II." I found this by a web search:

I thank you all in advance for your expert opinions.

regards, Mikey

p.s. Ever since I bought Fidelity's "Excellence" dedicated machine many years ago, I am still fascinated, delighted, and astounded that a machine can actually play chess!

IMO the program is not strong that much.
it has a good graphics.
with features for arcade-game players. but IMO serious people would prefer Chess System Tal.
