Good beginners chess game.

Game is excellent. Board is sturdy. Pieces are plastic but good quality, they comes with an additional piece that shows the moves of the pieces (for beginners). Also, the game comes with cards that explains the names of the pieces and how they move. This is ideal for kids. The package is compact and easy to transport so, you can bring this game with you to your trips. Pieces has good size. My daughter loved the game and the instructions that came with made the difference. Highly recommended.

The Easiest Way to Teach Chess—And Actually Have Fun Doing It

This game makes teaching chess so simple and fun. The board clearly shows where to place pieces, and the button pieces are genius—they show exactly how each one moves. I’ve taught multiple people with almost no effort and way less repeating myself.It takes all the pressure out of learning and makes it approachable for beginners. Definitely worth spending a little more for something that’s fun, effective, and frustration-free.

Finally learning chess!

As an older person trying to learn how to play chess, I have found this set extremely helpful. I’ve worked through the learning cards a couple of times, and they have helped me see the big picture of chess games. I refer to the bases on the game pieces frequently and am gaining more confidence in my ability to know where each piece can move. I really appreciate the teaching aspect of this set.

Great as a beginner set

Me and my nephew have been using this for me to learn chess to play with him. I like how the pieces give you the short cuts and you know how to move them I just wish the material was a little bit better and a bit more sturdy. But honestly for the price and how quick it came it was great.

Great for all ages to learn chess!

I learned on this same set 38 years ago and was happy to find it again! And though I thought only an adult game for me and my husband, the grandkids 4 & 6 couldn’t wait to play it afterschool and invited 2 friends over and soon we had 9 kids showing their moves playing chess. They like to know the names of the pieces and the way they move! Be the Queens Gambit!

Cheap learning chess set but not built to last

This chess set if good for a beginner to play with and learn to play chess. I use to have a similar set when I was a kid but it was much better built. This pieces are hollow and will break if one accidentally get stepped on and the board folds in to a square instead of a rectangle so there is a greater chance that the board will rip with more areas that it folds. This set would be better if the pieces were solid and had some felt on the bottom, and if the board was a little thicker and folded into a rectangle.It is still decent for learning but not build to last for a long time. I’m going to look for a better teaching set that I can buy that will last a lot longer.
