This chess set is an outstanding choice for anyone looking to learn the game or introduce it to beginners. The learning cards are incredibly helpful, guiding players through the rules and strategies step-by-step, making it easy for kids and adults alike to grasp the fundamentals of chess. The three levels of play—basic moves, simple strategy, and mighty moves—allow for gradual learning, which is perfect for fostering confidence in new players.
The double-sided gameboard simplifies setup and offers a clear layout for piece placement, which is especially beneficial for beginners. The detachable bases on the pieces are a clever feature, showing how each piece moves, and they can be removed once players are comfortable. This makes the transition to traditional chess seamless.
The quality of the set is commendable; the pieces are visually appealing and the overall design enhances the experience of learning and playing. While the board does have creases typical of board games, this doesn’t detract from the enjoyment.
Overall, this chess set not only provides a great way to bond with family but also encourages strategic thinking and patience. It has quickly become a favorite pastime in our home. Highly recommended for anyone looking to dive into the world of chess!

I purchased this game hoping my kids would have fun learning it, and it turned out to be a hit at Thanksgiving. Dad showed them how to play, and the instructions were simple enough for my 11 and 9-year-olds to read and grasp. My 5-year-old also learned when dad wasn’t around. They love that each piece has the name and moves printed on it. The quality is decent, and it offers excellent value for the price. Most importantly, it gives my kids a way to challenge each other and learn a game together, with their goal being to beat Dad.

I absolutely adore this set! My kids enjoy the cards, the pieces look fantastic, and the box is beautifully designed, making it a delightful experience to open and set up. Here are a few points to consider (none of which bothered me at all):

This chess set is ideal for beginners. The board indicates the placement of each piece, and both the pieces and cards demonstrate their movements. Once you’ve learned, you can flip the board over and detach the movement indicators from the pieces, transforming it into a standard chess set. We liked it so much that we bought one for our cousins, and they are now enjoying it as well. I highly recommend it for anyone learning chess.
