The graphics are poor, game play is slow, the options are few. It takes up way too much disk space to deliver such poor performance. There are many shareware and freeware versions of these game that are much superior to this product. The games are intuitive and easy to play, but the help feature is rudimentary at best. There are only three levels when playing against the computer.
Backgammon has no doubling cube.
The graphics for Shogi require you to learn Chinese. All the games are in earthtones, with no options to change the appearance. Each game looks dirty, old, and beat up. It's depressing even to look at it. There are many options for the background music, all poor.
