User Reviews

  • Best and simple fics/icc client, removes everything but the chess. (which is most important)
  • On windows 7 64-bit using 64-bit JRE, Jin for windows (jin.exe) won't start. You have to use jin.jar (double click on it) to start the app. Also, the Documentation link has been down for a very long time. That said, JIn it's my favorite chess client (on windows AND linux)
  • Best linux client for ICC. Only drawback is that it crashes occasionally. The other Java client crashes more often so this is the best there is.
  • Great and neat piece of software if you're into chess.
  • I admire this program, thanks
