Once you have downloaded and installed SAGE 9.0, you can now run it in "shareware" mode, and try it out. The "shareware" mode has certain key features disabled, and has limited playing levels/strength and database options. If you decide that you want to order the program, you need to enter a serial number - this number must be purchased from us before all the features are enabled.

In addition to the features on the Shareware mode, it has :

MUCH stronger level of play - the shareware version is fixed to 2 seconds per move. The full version has many options to set its thinking time, from instant to postal!
No NAG screens asking you to register!
Ability to save games to PDN databases - build your own database of your favorite games.
Ability to handle large databases - the Shareware version is limited to 100 games only.
Ability to use the Chinook endgame databases - up to 2.5 billion pre-computed positions. This dramatically improves SAGE's endgame play..
Ability to add moves to alter the opening book.
DPD functions - for analysing sets of positions, or for "teaching" SAGE new positions.
Functions that automatically annotate games with analysis.
Full autoplay features, play matches between engines.
You can download for use with SAGE the Endgame Databases, and over 3000 master games & problems in PDN format.
