Reception

Chessmaster 9000 received generally positive reviews from critics. GameSpot said that "no other product delivers the ease of use and instructional value of Chessmaster 9000."[12] IGN concluded: "In short, if you've got 8000 and can do without the in-game multiplayer modes, then you can just as easily do without 9000. If you don't own 8000 and have a love for chess, there's no reason not to own the latest version of the greatest series."[13] GameSpy said that "[...] Chessmaster 9000 is the perfect product for new players and veterans alike."[15] Computer Gaming World called the game "[a] powerful learning tool for sure, but the AI's lack of subtlety is geared more toward the already-accomplished player."[4] Macworld called it "the best chess game you can buy for the Mac".[6]
