Snopes = False.
The games don't work out,Sanny. This is a java-based program and
depends on the computer's speed for strength of play. My computer does
not follow the poor moves suggest by Jester after it reaches an
advantage in the early transition. Try a faster computer.
This is what Jester/Beginner plays on check-up:
1. e2-e4{2} d7-d6{0}
2. d2-d4{6} Ng8-f6{0}
3. Nb1-c3{6} g7-g6{0}
4. Bc1-g5{6} c7-c6{10}
5. Bg5-f6{10} e7-f6{8}
6. Bf1-c4{10} b7-b5{6}
7. Bc4-d3{10} b5-b4{8}
8. Nc3-e2{10} Bc8-a6{10}
9. Bd3-a6{10} Nb8-a6{6}
10. Qd1-d3{8} Qd8-a5{6}
Here, Jester plays:
11. Ng1-f3 eval(+1.30)
Why would Jester move the queen again, as shown in your games, and not
develop for advantage? It wouldn't.

17. Nb3-a5{10} Bf8-e7{10}
18. Na5-c4{10} Ke8-g8{22}
Here, Jester plays to take the pawn, and an easy coast to victory:
19.Nc4xe5 (eval +2.33)
I don't understand how this easy pawn grab is ignored by the your
computer, unless it is a very slow one.
It's easy for anyone to check up on these games. You just flip the
board and play as "Beginner" at the LudoChess.com Jester website.
