    I'll give it a shot but don't expect much.

    I beat it after about 6 goes. Ended up getting my F pawn promoted which lead to a free Rook for the Queen. Incredibly frustratingly in the end game I pressed New Game instead of Move Now but barring two massive blunders, the game was won

    Ok, I just beat it again, this time conclusively.

    The trick is
    the computer programme over extends himself easily at the begining. If you pin both of his knights, he'll start to push his pawns to get you off. if you just back off, he'll push three pawns on his GH side after castling and two pawns on his AB side. This lets you pin his knight by moving the Bishop to H4 or else he will push his pawns which effectively lets you release your rook and since your Queen has a diagonal on that side it is game over. Remember to castle Queenside if you must castle

    Spoiler tags just in case you want to beat it your self ;)

    Just use the spoiler tactic. It will give you a much better chance
