Kasparov receives first interactive digital chess magazine

AMSTERDAM – Garry Kasparov received the first copy of New In Chess magazine 2014#1 when he visited the Tata Steel Chess Tournament. “I am delighted that you can replay all games without the need of a chess set”, says editor-in-chief Dirk Jan ten Geuzendam, when he presented Kasparov with the iPad and the magazine. “This digital edition travels well. It is great that our readers can now choose between a paper and a digital edition. Or enjoy both!”

In the first digital chess magazine with a gameviewer the reader can play through all games which are annotated by top GM’s. Issue 2014#1 has annotations by Nakamura, Karjakin, Giri, Vachier-Lagrave, Nepomniatchi and many others.
