Fritz 10 - The Ultimate Chess Game
Deep in the shrouds of history we find the world’s first chess machine,
the legendary Chess Turk. Built by a Baron for a Queen, the automaton
was half human, half robot. Napoleon Bonaparte battled against it, Benjamin
Franklin bowed to its brilliant play, and Edgar Allan Poe tried to dissect
it with his analytical mind, torn between fear and fascination. Now you
can relive history and play the dreaded Turk yourself – in perfect
3D animation, 235 years after the empress Maria Theresia had the ancestor
of all chess computer programs let built. Experience the fascination of
the chess duel "Man vs. Machine " in a unique combination from
past and present: the Turk & Fritz. Face up to the duel. As did World
Champion Vladimir Kramnik and Garry Kasparov, who, followed by millions
of chess fans, played for mankind against FRITZ.
