Facing an artificial intelligence spread across many levels opens, by its very nature, endless replay value: no game of chess resembles the last. Climbing the difficulty, refining your openings and aiming for the toughest opponent turns the cartridge into a long-term study companion. That timeless depth, inherent to chess, explains why you keep coming back for years rather than finishing it.

Chessmaster, The (Game Gear) price, value & rarity
The Chessmaster, a portable adaptation of Mindscape's chess software with several artificial-intelligence levels. A gaming tool more than a spectacular title, it was made in reasonable quantity and stays readily findable. Its collecting interest stays low and rests mainly on the singularity of a classic thinking game within a Game Gear library dominated by action.
