Train your brain and your sight with this searching words game. You need to find as much words as possible in a NxN schema filled with random letters in the shortest time as possible. Only words that are longer then a minimum size can be selected. Words needs to be composed of connected cells. - You can't jump a cell. - You can't use twice a cell. Cells can be connected to each other in horizontal, vertical and diagonal. Dimension of the board, duration of a game and minum lenght of the word are configurable. At the end of your play you can see statistics showing the percentage of words found and the longest words contained in the board that you have missed. This game is compatible with any shell. Have fun and find a lot of words.

KCChess -- yet another xboard-compatible chess engine.

Kenny is a Winboard/XBoard chess engine based on Winglet (http://www.sluijten.com/winglet/source/index.htm), an open source chess program. Winglet's full source code can be obtained from Winglet. Kenny is an advanced form of Winglet which plays better at some faster time levels like blitz chess or upto 20 minute games, but almost always loses against Winglet when the time controls are 40 minutes or more for each. These tests were run by setting up various tournamennts on the free Chess GUI Arena Version 3.0. Kenny uses modified values for evaluation of various parameters, thus introducing almost an entirely new engine, because the evaluation function is the heart of a chess engine.

Kenny ClassIQ (read Kenny Classic) is something like my dream project. It is a chess engine with pure object oriented programming with close-to-real-world representation of the game inside the program using OOPS. Initially I thought of doing a similar thing in C++, but after trying to develop my other chess engine Kenny in this route, I found out that it is a difficult task, and switched to using Java for the programming instead. To learn how to do it, I created a similar, many-times-lesser-in-complexity project KenTacToe. Having completed it successfully, I've gained the confidence to proceed with Kenny ClassIQ, named so because it is more class-oriented than Kenny, and because I want it to be intelligent. (A play with words landed me Kenny ClassIQ.) Also, I used this name so that people searching for my other chess engine Kenny can also find this more advanced chess engine (okay, yes, I wanted to name my chess engine Kenny, so).

Kingdom Wars is a client/server chess daemon designed to run on multiple operating platforms. Both the client and the server are stand alone. The network protocal is open, and custom clients are welcome to be developed.

LINeup4 is a connect four game using a terminal interface which doesn't need any graphic libraries. This game is also known as four in a row or connect4. The game is won by lining up four of your pawns in a row, in a column or diagonally.

There are not so many chess implementations in LISP (at least, to my knowledge) Here is one. No hay muchas implementaciones del ajedrez en LISP (que yo sepa) Ahí va una.

An other connect4 written in Ada using GtkAda, main language is French. An Artificial Intelligence is provided, you can play against the computer. Un autre Puissance4 écrit en Ada s'appuyant sur GtkAda. Il est pourvu d'une Intelligence Artificielle.

Quantum Chess provides an alternative to traditional chess ai which is based on branching, iterations, and historical plays databases. Instead Quantum Chess models each piece as a wave function between other pieces on the board allowing the discovery of optimal continuous paths. Please see the discussion page on where to begin. The theoretical advantage of Quantum Chess is that it automatically prunes redundant moves unlike iterative/branching models while maintaining strategy-like behavior completely unlike both chess AIs and humans. It is intended as an experiment to play against itself, and later to interface to other computers and humans. This should help form the basis for understanding real-world problems in a completely different way. Let this be an experiment into how we think about objects and waves as much as a viable ai chess alternative.

Curious mad fan of sudoku, I've been pretty disappointed to always find programs processing all cases. For us "humans", it's unusable. That's why I've had in mind so far to create one which could help us (giving hints) if we're stumped.
