Good Program But Need Play Button

Updated Review: May 7th, 2013
Reduce stars for no way to play and check alternative answers.

I had thought that this program wasnt good. I couldnt solve many of the puzzles and had thought that they were wrong. Puzzle # 17 is a good example of this situation. I spent many hours on it till I set it up on chessgenius where it was solved it in 3 moves. BUT CHESSGENIUS WAS WRONG!

The problem is that there are multiple solutions, but they are nevertheless all really mate in 2 moves. I found this out after the programs was updated and the author added a hint/solution option that was surely needed. After the first move, the second move can be multiple move depending on what the computer does. But it will ALWAYS be mate in 2. If they didnt add the hint button I would have never discovered this. So, many cudos and nuff respect to a great chess puzzle program.

Everything thing else about the program is good. I like how it has the option to look like a real chess board. It doesnt look cheap. I give maximum stars for the effert that went into creating it. And sorry for my former negative review. Well that new hint button made the difference.
