Mattel Aquarius Chess Game Cartridge - Model 4594

(Mattel Electronics - 1983)

Aquarius Chess Game Cartridge
This is nothing more and nothing less than a nice simple chess program where you can go up against the computer or another player. The demonstration mode pits the computer against itself.
Not to surprisingly, the AI is limited and does not learn from your playing style. It would be difficult to play chess against it if you are a beginner, but if you have any chess savey, you can beat the computer consistently.
I would say game play rates 5-10, controls 6-10, and overall 5-10. So if you want a fun diversion on your Aquarius, this might not be a good choice to play.
