Hello!

I figured out how to customize chess on your mac book!

I will show you how to change:

The chess board appearance

The appearance of the chess pieces

and the computer's voice

Let's get started!

First look for launchpad on your doc, (the symbol is a black rocket with a grey background). If you already have chess on your doc then just click on the icon (grey and white checkers with an knight) Once you get to launchpad go to the others section and find chess. Once you find it double click on it.

Find Chess and Click on "chess" on the Menu Bar
