About

Freeling Grandchess is part of Abstract Games by Christiaan Freeling, a seven-part Macintosh collection from Solar Software. The set is organized thematically into Chess variants, Elimination, Territorial, Connection, and Bead capturing games, with each part shipped as a self-displaying archive that needs no separate reader.

About the collection

The seven parts can each be downloaded separately. Because every archive is self-displaying, no additional viewer or runtime is required to read it on a classic Mac.

Sources

Most of the games included have appeared previously in print, in David Pritchard's The Encyclopedia of Chess Variants and in R. Wayne Schmittberger's New Rules for Classic Games.

Author

The games are by Dutch designer Christiaan Freeling, best known for inventions such as Grand Chess and a long catalog of other abstract strategy games.

Preview

The author offers a free preview archive (freeling-preview.hqx) available from the Solar Software website to give an impression of the book's contents before downloading the full set.
