Phantom! • Autonomous Self-Moving Electronic Chess Set Enter the 21st century of computerized chess with the most skilled opponent and teacher — one who is always ready for a game. Phantom! Chess features real pieces that move across the board automatically, and a voice that coaches and cajoles! Phantom! moves its own pieces in competition and actually can play both sides against itself. It's fun to start because the board sets itself up automatically. Play against Phantom! at 120 skill levels from beginner to master. Choose tournament- or fixed-time mode. A dual chess-clock is built in. Save interrupted games and, later, the pieces will find their spots. For the beginner, choose the basic teaching mode. Play and learn using expert commentary and advice from Phantom!; use the hint option, threat warnings (with explanation), a "Sure?" coaching mode and a Take-back option. If checkmate looms in five moves, a warning will sound. As you progress, focus on the start of your games with the "classic openings" trainer. Phantom! announces all moves in algebraic notation, and they are shown on a dot matrix display. Optional fun sound effects (a galloping knight; a marching pawn) add a new dimension to this ancient game. Phantom! Chess has a storage compartment for the pieces; it measures 2.5" x 15" x 13" and weighs 4 lbs. For ages 14 and up. Plugs in with included AC adapter; alternatively, it runs on 6 C batteries (order separately). 90-day warranty. Tournament Strength Program Robotic Motion Sound Learning Set Features
