Cfish: Updated January, 6 2022.

For Windows and Linux, NO MACOS OR ANDROID!


- Changelog: Updated to "Simplification for countermoves based pruning".



CFish, a port of Stockfish written in plain C by Ronald de Man, first published on GitHub in July 2016. Possibly inspired by the asmFish project to speed up Stockfish using a programming language closer to the machine, the purpose of CFish is to explore possible optimization issues of C versus C++ compilers.

Its reliablity is unique, Cfish is the best chess program even in short time games other than being the best choice for chess analysis.


- Windows

- Linux


WARNING: this is not a new version. I've decided to set downloadable to anyone the latest Cfish version due to its incredible value for the community. In facts at this moment I didn't find a better engine to analyse positions.

You will find the link to the Cfish source at the bottom of this page.
