The Shredder chess programs by Stefan Meyer-Kahlen have already won nine titles as World Computer Chess Champion, are leading in all important computer chess rating lists and are accepted as the best chess programs for PCs. They combine extremely powerful chess play with easy handling. The level of play of the program can be adjusted to any chess playing strength, so that everyone can find an adequate chess partner. Many functions are available for analysing one's own chess games, including a built-in chess coach, who is alert to mistakes and helps improve your chess play.

Three versions of the Shredder chess program are available via download:

• Shredder Classic - The favorable start in the Shredder chess world
• Shredder 9 UCI - The latest and strongest version of the Shredder chess family
• Deep Shredder 9 UCI - The best chess for high performance PCs

What is the difference between Shredder Classic, Shredder 9 UCI and Deep Shredder 9 UCI?

All three versions are delivered with the same user interface and differ only in the included chess engine.

• Shredder 9 UCI is the latest and strongest version of the Shredder chess family which exists since 1993.
• Deep Shredder 9 UCI additionally supports computers with more than one processor and can therefore compute faster and more efficiently on those machines, but it will also run fine on normal PCs with just one processor.
• Shredder Classic has the same chess knowledge like his bigger brothers but his calculations are not as fast and efficient.

What does UCI mean?

UCI means Universal Chess Interface and defines the interface between the chess engine and the user interface. As it is an open specification you can use the Shredder chess engine and the Shredder user interface together with other products also supporting UCI.
