Hi all,
below is the link for the windows VI games that do include chess plus others. I am aware this is for Linux, but you can use the Linux windows libraries to use them. As long as they support MSapi speech, you will be fine.
The programs are free.

yes, the fact is sighted computer users like graphical interfaces, so the more we can use the better.follow me on twitter @joshknnd1982 On 6/30/2015 3:56 PM, Alex Midence wrote:
Yeah, playing against the computer all the time gets pretty boring and sighted people won’t use a cli chess game when there are GUI ones around so, we need an accessible one unless we only want to play against other blind people and the handful of sighted folks not daunted by a command line these days.

Subject: Re: [orca-list] any accessible chess game? Lol, so they can play remotely with someone. I just find it easier using the GUI versions under Windows and Mac then using Gnu chess on the command line. The GuI you can get away with not using a board at the same time. Sean Sean Murphy writes:
GNU chess used to be accessible.
It still is on the command line. Use it with Speakup or Brltty.
I have no idea of a accessible gui chess application, but I also don't
understand why a blind user would insist on a gui shess app.
Note there is an app called gnome-chess, which is not the same as gnu
chess.

I am aware of windows and Mac accessible Chess games.
