Chess free Games - Play free Chess Games on this nice Java Applet

Play free chess games here and get some chess training. Learn to play chess online.

Try to apply the chess strategies that you have learned so far. This java chess program is a bit weaker than the other program at PlayChess I, but it is still very strong and hard to beat. Try it yourself.

If you are a beginner and you find this program too difficult then go to the Flash Program PlayChess III or PlayChess IV or try RoboChess which is the weakest. It plays the worst game I have ever seen so far. However, test some openings and get practical chess experience.
