Mine looks like that (using SyncTERM v1.8b). It's an awesome game! I was a little confused by this prompt:
  Checkmate! You win!
  (P)GN   (A)gain   (Q)uit

as I wasn't familiar with what a "PGN" is, apparently a game log format of some kind?

I do kind of wish the computer moves were a little more obvious, slow or animated or something. They computer moves are so fast, I usually had to look at the move log to be able to tell what/where they moved.

But wow, what a fantastic BBS door! Just amazing! Good work Nelgin/Claude! :-)
