Hello I´am trying to find out a fun chess engine with figurines and themes. I would to play Chessmaster 10th but it doesn´t seems to work on my pc I haven´t managed to install it even with help so I decided to look out for another game. So far I´ve found Battle Chess and Chess ultra which seem okay but I really want some game with the range of themes that had Chessmaster, I would really appreciate some suggestions.

There is a PC type version of Chessmaster on the playstation 2 though you’d be searching the second hand market to get the console, game and ideally, the SCART cable that is RGB and not some composite knock off.

Chess Ultra is available on a few platforms and has what you're looking for.  Although I have I'm not a fan of the angles they give for their 3D virtual board but you might feel different.  I do also have a friend who used it with actual Virtual Reality headset on PS4 and liked it.

Chess Ultra and Prue Chess are the only 2 that I can think of off the top of my head.

A quick google search shows that a Chessmaster ROM for playstation emulator exists so you’d be able to use that on your PC.

Sorry, can’t use quote function on mobile app.

I do not like Chess Ultra’s default viewing angle either and using the thumb sticks on the Nintendo Switch makes the view snap back after adjustment. However, I discovered that one can alter and fix a preferred viewing angle and zoom using the often overlooked touch screen on the Switch. The zoom level is achieved through the shoulder buttons.
