LEVEL OF PLAY (0-6)
Press the number indicating the level of play you desire. Each higher
level increase SARGON's computation time and playing skill. As pieces
are exchanged and the amount of material on the board diminishes,
SARGON does NOT take dramatically less time to make a move. Instead
the look ahead increases automatically. Average time per move at each
level is listed below. The actual time for a given move may range from
about 1/3 to 3 times the times given:
AVERAGE TIME BETWEEN MOVES
0 - Immediate Response
1 - 20 seconds
2 - 1 minute
3 - 2 minutes
4 - 6 minutes
5 - 40 minutes
6 - 4 hours
