For some reason, I couldn't find the Ludii Player on my computer today. So, I downloaded it again and noted that it was in my Downloads folder before running it. It is just a .jar file and doesn't install anything.

Continuing to use it, EPT-QB quickly beat Ludii. The ironic thing is that EPT-QB made a terrible move, exposing its Queen to en prise capture by either the Bishop or the Queen, and instead of taking the Queen, Ludii just moved its Queen beside it. Then EPT-QB captured the Bishop for checkmate.

Ludii drew UBFM by three-times repetition, maybe not too surprising since Ludii is more fully called Ludii (UBFM). The surprising thing is how UBFM flubbed up the endgame. It had both a Queen and a Rook against the King, and instead of quickly going for checkmate, it kept repeating the same Rook moves back and forth while the King kept going back and forth.

In Ludii vs Biased UBFM, the game was a draw through three-times repetition. It was more interesting, because White kept chasing the King with its Queen while Black had two connected Rooks and a passed Pawn. I eventually took over for White and won, but it was probably due to Biased UBFM's bad playing.
