Good study tool - "Guess the Move"

I've been experimenting with some chess apps on android that have "Guess the Move" feature, where you load up a game you want to memorize, and then it simply asks you to replay the moves for either one side or both.

 

It's remarkably good for what it is - I find I focus a lot more when I'm asked the game in this format than when just playing through it again. 

 

I haven't come across this features in Fritz/Chessbase, unfortunately. Any other PC sotware that does this?

 

And anyone else like this feature?

I've used YATT, but I haven't used this one yet.

The only freestanding software I have found is "Guess the Move" by Fred Mellender:

I will add though, that you can load any pgn file into it, and it seems to work. So if you would like to use the games of a favorite player, and have a pgn of the games, you can use that.

Right now I'm using Alekhine's games from his two volume Best Games.

Lucas Chess has it. They call it "Play like a Grandmaster".
