Customer Review: a great game that will provide fun for children and adults.
Summary: 5 Stars
This game turned me into a chess player in just two weeks of playing every once in a while. This game may discourage people who think that chess is too hard to learn or people who think chess is for freaks. This game is good for people who don't know a bishop from a knight because of the game's built in tutor who teaches you all you need to know and some techniques I never expected him to cover. When playing chess, captures are animated in a half Battle Chess, half jokes you can find off Loony Tunes style.For instance, when a bishop captures a queen, the bishop shoots a spell at the queen and the queen is shrunk down to nothing. This game features chess sets from the Western and Pirates themes as well as a traditional chess set. Lego shouldn't have discontinued this game.It's both fun and educational.Gosh, there's five words I'd thought I'd never say in a row.
