The computer is not turned completely off, but instead retains the current chess position and the current
level and playing style in its memory while using a minimum of power. This means that you can stop in the
middle of a game and then switch the computer ON again later on to continue the same game. This also
means that you must always press the
a new game. If it is your turn and you don't make any move or input the computer will auto power off after
approximately 2 hours to save batteries.
If you prefer to play silently, press the SOUND/COLOUR key briefly. The computer's sound effects
will be muted. If you prefer to play without the light effects, press the SOUND/COLOUR key for
a long time. To turn the sound and effects back on, press the SOUND/COLOUR key again. The
sound is also restored when you press the NEW GAME button.
The computer has 64 different levels, which are organised in the following way:
The computer has 13 different levels of difficulty plus 3 special levels:
• Level 1 to 5 are beginner levels; the computer will make mistakes to let the player take
some pieces.
On level 1 the computer will make lots of mistakes, and even sometimes place a piece on a square
where it can be immediately captured by a pawn. Playing on this level is a good way to learn how the
pieces move. You can also switch to level 1 if you are losing a game and want the computer to make
a few mistakes.
On level 2 the computer will also make lots of mistakes, but it will never place a piece on a square
where it can be immediately captured by a pawn.
On level 3 the computer will make a couple of mistakes per game.
On level 4 the computer will on average make only one mistake per game, and it will place the
queen on a square where it can be immediately captured.
On level 5 the computer will overlook certain forks and mate threats, but it will never place pieces on
squares where they can be immediately captured.
