Introducing Stockfish 2 for Mac, the biggest update to Stockfish for Mac yet! These are just a few of the features:

  • UPDATED DESIGN. We've given the app a visual refresh: there's a new color scheme, dramatically improved animations, and a new toolbar.
  • UPDATED ENGINE. The new Stockfish engine is about 45 ELO stronger than Stockfish 5. And there's a 5% speed boost if you're using the latest Haswell processors.
  • MULTIPV. Sometimes you want to know the 2nd or 3rd best move in addition to the best move. Enable more lines of analysis in the Engine menu.
  • UNDO/REDO. Now Stockfish will warn you if you're about to overwrite the game history with a new move, and you can always undo.
  • ENDGAME TABLEBASES. You can select a folder of Syzygy endgame tablebases for Stockfish to use during analysis. (Tablebases downloaded separately.)
  • MORE OPTIONS. You can adjust the engine's skill level and contempt, or have Stockfish automatically tweak the settings for strongest play.

Many crashes are now fixed as well. We hope you enjoy using Stockfish 2 for Mac. Please help us out and leave a rating on the App Store if you like it. Thanks!
