Hey all!

So yeah, my phone is about 4 years old so there's so no real good software available for it, but hey, it still runs Dosbox quite nicely.

Anyway, I'm wondering if there's any way to download and solve a variety of chess puzzles and play them in some type of DOS engine/game.

I've rifled the net and came up empty.

If you might have somewhere to lead me online, please drop a message.

I don't really understand. Do you need a DOS chess game, or a more complex DOS chess application/game like Kasparov today?

I think, he need études. Like "checkmate in 3 turns".

But no, I, personally, not a big fan of chess, so I cannot guess anything.

Yeah, something like "checkmate in 3 turns".

I've honestly looked everywhere and can't find one single DOS game or program that has this chess puzzle solving feature.

Thanks for the response.

Have you tried the Sargon games, especially Sargon 4?
