Chessimo

chess training software

Our Rating: (Very Good)

Chessimo (formerly Personal Chess Trainer) is a chess training software that is based on the concept of memorizing tactics, strategies and endgames by (repeatedly) solving specific chess situations, and determining the best move. Rather than trying to teach you the concepts behind these moves, it lets you figure it out by yourself. If your first attempt is incorrect, it will give you a hint by marking the chess piece that should be moved, and if you cannot solve it within the set time limit, it will provide you with the solution (but not always with an explanation). Chessimo was developed by GM Gilberto Milos and includes a database of more than 6000 chess moves from Grandmaster games, that are divided into 3 categories, starting with simple moves and gradually increasing in difficulty. Other features include support for multiple users, customizable chess pieces and layout.
