Electronic Trio
Trio 1 25 x 26


This machine plays Chess, Draughts (Checkers) and Tic-Tac-Toe (Noughts and Crosses). As a chess computer it is of a similar strength to the Scisys Pocket Chess. The Draughts and Noughts and Crosses (levels 3 and 4) programs are quite strong.

Whilst clearly a mass market machine only a relatively modest number seem to have reached the European market. The weak lids to the chessboard and piece compartments could be one reason.
