Book Opening Trainer

Touch Chess makes it easy for you

to learn the same openings that

world chess champions play. At the

beginning of a game, you may

choose to learn one of 34 popular

book openings—ways to begin the

game—used by chess masters.

Press 2nd, then OPTIONS, to dis-

play OPEn, and then press the

+NEXT or -SETUP keys to select

the number of the opening you

want to learn. Then press the 2nd

key to return to normal play.

Now play a move. If your move is

not the correct opening move, an

error buzz will sound. To learn the

correct move press HINT. When

the computer comes back with its

move, you will briefly see the word

OPEn on the screen if you have

another opening move to make. If

the word OPEn does not appear,

you may continue normal play. You

have completed the training for that

opening line.
