Chess board software to MANUALLY think NOT engine analysis.

Hi,

I am after a simple stand alone software to setup my game in PGN and mull over it. My own analysis no engines. I am not looking for a software with chess engine. Not a web page because it has engines. and distractions.

Just to setup my game and think about options. Multiple boards would be useful so I don't have to erase previous analysis.

Is there such a thing?

Chessbase, but it's paid and quite expensive depending on your wallet.

Scid vs Pc is a free alternative which will also allow you to build your own library of games and annotate them.

Real chess board, real pieces, real notebook, real pencil. People used it many centuries.

Thank you very much everybody.

I really appreciate it. I will try out all except Chessbase. I recon it is out of my league.

Thanks again.
