Chess Cloid
Chess Cloid is a chess clock. Traditionally, a game clock
consists of two adjacent clocks and buttons to stop one clock while
starting the other, such that the two component clocks never run
simultaneously. Game clocks are used in two-player games where the
players move in turn.
Features:
- Supports the following types of time control:
- Fischer - before a player has made his move, a
specified time increment is added to his clock. Time can be
accumulated, so if the player moves within the delay period, his
remaining time actually increases
- Bronstein - with the Bronstein timing method,
the increment is always added after the move. But unlike Fischer, not
always the maximum increment is added
- Simple Delay - when it becomes a player's turn
to move, the clock waits for the delay period before starting to
subtract from the player's remaining time
- Hour Glass - a player loses in this time control
when he allows the difference between both clocks to reach the
specified total amount.
- Japanese Byo-Yomi - an extended time control in
two-player games
- Settable delay settings from 10 seconds to 60 seconds
- Large and clear font makes it easy to se the state of time
and turn status
- Sound setting
Verdict:
An Android device and Chess Cloid makes for
an extremely portable
chess clock. It is the finest chess clock for the Android platform.
