Year of Release
1983The Advertising Blurb
Superchess 3.0 has been developed to bring out the strongest chess program yet for the Spectrum computer.
At the tournament level Superchess 3.0 has a look-ahead of five to seven ply (moves) in the middle game, and ten to twelve ply in the end game. This gives Superchess 3.0 a substantial advantage against other chess programs and promises the experienced player an interesting and challenging game of chess.
Unlike other chess programs, Superchess 3.0 is not just a brute-force calculator, but employs artificial intelligence techniques to allow deeper searching along the main lines of play.

Sinclair User 5/5Review:
Although the display is basic, this is a very sophisticated game, as the advertising boasts. During the computer's turn, it displays detailed information about its thought processes, which makes it more fascinating than the competition.Other Images (click or select to view larger version)
