Easy Chess (by Ed Friedlander)Įd Friedlander’s Easy Chess is brilliantly simple, but Flash Chess III is more visually appealing. Of course, it’s only really possible to say which of the online Chess games is best, by playing some of the alternatives …įlash Chess 3D is actually made by the same developers who produced Flash Chess III … Flash Chess 3D was an earlier attempt.Īs we mention elsewhere, their main focus seemed to be on the underlying programming, rather than playability or visual appeal, which they’ve since fixed with Flash Chess III. It’s true – I started a game in Internet Explorer, Saved it, then opened Flash Chess III in Google’s Chrome browser … and up popped the option to resume playing my previously saved game.Īnyway, we’ve mentioned Flash Chess III elsewhere, so click here if you want to know more. The programmers have added a few features that you’ll appreciate, such as an Undo button – fine, some may see this as cheating, but being able to make a mistake, undo and try something else is good for improving your game.Īnother feature is the Save and Load buttons … While it only works if you go back to play on the same computer, the Saved game will be on offer even if you reload the game in a different Web Browser … It also, as I’m sure you’ll agree, looks good – sure, the gameplay has got to be the ultimate decider, but people like things that look quality, as well – that’s ( partly) why a Bugatti Veyron is more desirable than an Ultimate Aero. Yes, we’ve mentioned Flash Chess III on many pages throughout this website, but that’s because we found it to be pretty good for a cheeky game of Chess, whether you’re a beginner or have a better skill level.
