Free Chess Game

Looking at the links from the MS windows Mobile site it seems most free games are not compatible with my O2 XDA zest. I think this is likely due to the resolution or something but in any case I was looking to find a chess program . If someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated

Re: Free Chess Game

I have to admit I've never managed to find a good free VGA compatible Chess game. I'd be very interested as well if anyone has got any good ideas on this one.

It works perfectly on the Ignito, with one exception - it never loses (not to me anyway)!!!

Re: Free Chess Game

Is that a bug or a feature?

Have you tried it yet - I reckon you'd have to be a grand master (I think that's what they are called) to beat it !!

I think I'll Google and find Chess Dumbo. See if I can't make a game of it !
