Free Chessmaster Live DLC

Fri, 2008-04-25 23:20 — ashn0d

According to Major Nelson's blog, Chessmaster Live just got a free DLC pack. Titled "Fork My Fruit", is available everywhere except Japan and Korea and the Dash text states:

Enjoy new ways to play chess with this original mini-game: learn or perfect your art of moving chess pieces in Fork My Fruit.

Not sure what that really means, to be honest.

Funny. This DLC was up

Funny. This DLC was up last week I think. I imagine that the DLC contains a bunch of puzzles that help to teach the concept of "forking" which is an important fundamental to good chess.

Basically, forking is when you use one of your pieces to threaten *two* of your opponent's pieces thus forcing your opponent to choose which piece they would like to lose (but they are gonna lose something no matter what).

lol, when I first scanned

lol, when I first scanned the post I missed that it was for Chessmaster and thought to myself, they are already talking about DLC for the Penny Arcade game?
