Rodent 3 (Version 2.29)
Rodent II is one of the few chess engines in the world that can adopt over 60 different
personalities. It offers different playing styles rather than different strength levels. Rodent II can
just as easily be turned into a strong and experienced Grandmaster as it can impersonate a
beginning youth player. It has both serious and funny personalities, such as the “positional
defender” and the “crazy attacker”.
