(More customer reviews)I really like this computer game because it uses parts-to-whole instruction - it introduces each chess piece separately with an interesting strategy game that teaches how it moves.
Kids have to master the strategy games for each piece before they are given a chance to play with a full board.
But more important than MY impressions are those of my kids - 6 and 8, boy and girl, - who just LOVE this game and cheer each other on. I am thrilled to have them captivated by a "thinking" game. They have generalized their interest in chess to a real board too - they do not just play the game on the computer.
Another note - while I personally enjoy the graphics, they are not sophisticated or realistic, but more like illustrations in a children's book.
Definitely worth the money.
