Chinese Chess - Online 4.2.5

Additions to the software:

• Integration of an Online Game Hall for Chinese Chess
• Inclusion of tips for selecting pieces
• Manual selection of AI level and option to retract a move once per game round

This software serves as a benchmark for Chinese chess proficiency, with various levels to challenge users. Successful completion of all levels indicates a chess skill level akin to a professional level 2.

The user interface is designed for simplicity, allowing players to focus solely on the game.

This iPad version closely emulates the Facebook Flash version available here: http://apps.facebook.com/chschess. The integration of the iPhone's chschess with Facebook is planned for the future, with all levels stored locally. This software offers an engaging platform to ascertain one's chess capabilities.

Restrictions in this chess software include:

1. Undoing moves
2. Restarting a new game before completion
3. Selecting difficulty levels, as the system automatically adjusts to the player's skill level

A potential future feature could be a "Lose" button, enabling users to concede defeat to the computer in certain situations.

Plans are underway to introduce a practice mode where users can:

1. Undo moves
2. Choose difficulty levels
3. Restart games at any point in time

These enhancements are set for development later on.
