tiny chess

Looking for Tiny Chess.

There was a series of windows freeware games a few years back centered around the gimmick of being tiny, taking up the screen estate of less than a postage stamp. Of these there was a chess one called, creatively, "Tiny Chess." I would love to find it again, but the google-fu is weak.

You can download all the tiny windows games here.

I found this by googling for "tiny windows games chess".

Response by poster: Oh. I see my problem here is that I googled for "ostridge farts, sizable."

That tiny chess game has a tiny chess brain. It gave up its queen by the 10th move.

I know that site... I still have Tiny Tetris, Simon, and Breakout. I recall the site was taken down over copyright violations. *sigh*

Well, that's your problem, then; you should have used "ostrich".
