Best Chess Programs Software For MacShredder is also still a thing for the Mac, but not sure what it has that would justify paying 50 for. Best Chess Programs Free Demo VersionThey seem to have a free demo version though if you want to try that out. If you want a chess database that you can plug engines into, Hiarcs Chess Explorer is your best (and only, really) commercial option, and SCIDvMac is a free option. Im not a huge fan of the SCID gui (cant stand it, honestly), but it definitely does work. In both cases you can plug engines into them and have the engines play each other. If you wanted to try out a free database, and download something like Kingbase or PGNmentor games to go with it, youd have a bunch of historical games to look through as well. If you go the database route and want to mess around with engines, you can get the older Komodo 9 engine for free from their site. I dont think that one has a level setting though (I think they introduced that in 11 or so), so that one may be better for analysis than playing. So in short, while there are limited options on the mac, the options that are there are quite good and world class level imho. ![]() ![]() The one that comes with the Mac Stinks View entire discussion ( 7 comments) More posts from the chess community Continue browsing in rchess rchess Welcome to rchess The goal of this community is to foster in-depth discussion about all things chess, from games, puzzles, and analysis to news and current events.
