Chessmaster: Grandmaster Edition
This one is abandonware... It's available for free on myabandonware website. Ubisoft dropped all Chessmaster games, as far as I know... Ehhh... Still, would be cool to see it on GOG.
This game seems like a no-brainer to me. One of the best ways to learn chess offline, ever. I still have this game on my PC today, but would buy a GOG version in a heartbeat. With interest in chess really booming during and after lockdown, it would be a great time to have this as a part of the GOG catalogue.
Considerably inferior to Chessmaster 10th Edition, but would still be nice to have around. Chessmaster was a very friendly series. This lacks a lot of what made 10 special, especially regarding some of the tutorial stuff, but it's still got a lot of great content and would be infinitely superior to the current GOG chess offerings, which are abysmal.
"Chessmaster is a chess-playing computer game series which is now owned and developed by Ubisoft. It is the best-selling chess franchise in history, with more than five million units sold as of 2002. [...]
30 October 2007: The current version, Chessmaster XI, was released for Windows XP/Vista (titled Chessmaster: Grandmaster Edition) [...]"

please gog... nothing comes close to this mighty chess game
Yep, this is one of the best programs to learn chess, great tutorials and awesome engine with many "human" AI profiles.
I would buy it without hesitation.
I love this game, especially the tutorials. I still have the CDs, but they won't run on Windows 8 or 10 and I don't want to fight with an XP emulator. I'd be thrilled to see this one on GOG!
I'd really support any new chess games GOG would add to it's catalog. All we have right now are those Battle Chess games, and those really are not my style.
I have the game, but it will not run on Windows 8.1 64 bit after installing and running with any compatibility settings or with suggestions from Ubisoft,
one of the best chess games i ever played. I learned chess with this awesome game
I really hot this gets brought here, the game was a JEWEL and nowadays is nowhere to be found... not even on developer website... it's ...poof... it's gone
so please pretty please bring it here...
