Terrible Chess Game

My phone (a Samsung c225) from T-Mobile has a chess game on it that I am pretty sure was not designed by someone that knows the game. First off, the board is wrong: it neglects the "light on right" rule. Second, the computer is horrrrrrrrrrrrible. It "thinks" and then plays some of the worst chess I have ever seen. My favorite opening against Mobile Chess:

I have the same phone and i checkmated the hard computer in 4.

yeah, that opening was against "hard"... it's awful... although, in the vein of portable chess games, chessmaster is going to have a version available for nintendo ds soon

Yeah that is pretty ridiculous.. it doesnt even know the value of the pieces? very nice.

Where can I get a phone like that? I'm not proud... anyway I can experience what it feels like to win would be fine!

I would love to see Apple develop a chess game for iPod video. (Anyone listening in Appleland???)

i was bored at a bus stop and played this game again and i realized you can scholar's mate the computer on easy every time.

On the 3rd move, there is a descriptive notation move that I don't understand: "WTF", but I understand that "?!" means dubious move.

 

 I'm kidding, of course! Laughing

PS: Get some other chess game for your mobile!
