Chess-for-Android

For some reason, whenever I pick up a new device, gaming console, or any other kind of electronic gizmo… I always look for new games. And without fail, among them is the time-tested, brain-busting game of Chess. I always enjoy a game here and there against the computer AI or a live opponent to get the brain-a-workin’ when I need a boost.

Thankfully for me and other Android-device owners, I happened to come upon a chess app for Android a little while ago. The game is fairly straightforward, yet has some nifty features including ‘suggest a move’ (if you need some help) and an ‘auto-play’ mode that lets you watch the computer do battle against itself.

For all the details, check ‘er out in the App Market or hit up the developers’ blog.
