If you hang a pawn or piece HIARCS will take it in my experience.Īnyway if you want a decent chess partner for you iPad and that goes nicely and plays as consistent as the Mac version then this is probably worth the money you pay. What do I mean by that? It doesn’t seem to make moves that are so blatantly bad that you are screaming at the engine, “why didn’t you take the piece I left hanging on accident?” HIARCS will make more subtle weak moves is my guess. One thing I like is that at my low rating level, the game feels pretty much like a human player. HIARCS plays chess good enough so I have a sparring partner to practice chess with. It’s not the strongest engine, but that’s not what I wanted.
