If you're wondering what's the difference between the 368 MB "Disc Image" and the 296 "ISO Version", once you unpack them they are binary identical, it's just that the "ISO Version" is really a single .iso image file, while the "Disc Image" is a set of .cue + .ccd + .img + .sub image files.

Hello. I have figured out how to play the game. Here are the steps.
1. Download PCem (version v17 is fine).
2. Google pcemwin98se, download that and add/extract it to the PCem folder. This is your windows 98 special edition, and this saves you from setting everything in win98 up yourself.
3. Download the Lego Chess .iso file from archive DOT org /details/lego-chess
4. Launch windows 98 from your PCem app.
5. (you may need to look up how to do this) mount the Lego Chess iso in your PCem win 98 emulation, and then run it.
6. Install Lego chess. It will now work, but the graphics will be a little wonky.
7. Go to start - programs - - Lego Media - In Lego Chess Config, change the graphics driver to Voodoo2 Direct.
8. Launch game! Woooo, there you go :D NOSTALGIA!

Lego Chess is a chess game made by the LEGO Group and plays exactly like regular chess in the vein of Battle Chess for DOS. You get a nice little themed cutscene depending on which piece takes which and which theme the pieces are.

Very fun, do recommend
