    Perfect to learn how to play

    I was interested to see what this game from spin master was going to be like. We have never played chess in my family and I was sceptical that it would be able to teach us how. But it is great. It has pieces that show you exactly how you can move with each piece. Instructional cards to help you throughout the game. I was pleasantly surprised. The best part is that it is not just for beginners. Once you master the art of chess you can detach the instructional bases and just use the prices as a traditional game. It is a perfect game for any age and great for family game night or date night!

    A great gift for beginners!

    Chess Made Simple, Beginner Learning Chess Set is the perfect set to learn to play chess! It has easy to follow cards that help teach you the basics of the game from board layout and how to move the different pieces, to strategic moves and fun challenges that help you or your child put your new knowledge into practice!

    My oldest son loves playing chess and has tried to teach his little brother how to play several times, but my youngest keeps forgetting how the pieces move and can get frustrated with being told he's moving the pieces wrong. This chess set has really helped him be more independent while playing the game. The snap on bases on the chess pieces along with the cards showing how the pieces move help him remember how to move the pieces on his turn. The strategy cards help him plan out his moves ahead of time, which means he needs less help. The challenge cards make the games more interesting and help him think of the strategy he wants to use.

    I like that the board is double sided too. One side is like a regular chess board for more advanced players and the other side has pictures on the squares to show where the pieces should be at the start of the game, making setting up the board easier for beginners. The snap on bases help remind beginners how to move the pieces and are easy to snap on and off to accommodate all levels of experience. They also show a picture of the piece to snap on so you won't mix them up accidentally. This board really grows with you as you learn!

    The Perfect Beginner Chess Set

    This is just what my son and I needed to get us playing together. I'm learning completely from scratch, never played in my life, and he has a little knowledge and experience. Thanks to the included learning cards, he has learnt new moves and terms that he was unaware of and now has a better understanding of the game. For me, I knew nothing and so the learning cards, move cards, learning board and detachable bases are just what I needed! Thanks to the learning sidr of the board, learning and remembering placement for each piece was a breeze! There are three levels of learning cards that take you from basic moves to more advanced moves at your own pace. There's no overflooding of information and resulting confusion. The detachable bases that show the available moves for that piece are genius! The great part is, once your confident and skilled enough, you can remove the bases, flip the board to the standard side and ditch the cards.

    Great Introduction to Chess

    Wonderful introduction to chess for kids in a fun way. The board shows you how to set it up properly. Cards show very clearly how each piece can move and explain the rules of the game and some basic strategies. It reduces the stress while playing chess, especially for beginners. Highly recommended.

    So fun!

    I played this with my 11 year old grandson. It was easy for him to learn in a new fun way. The instructions were clear and easy for us to follow. It was a really great way to teach him the game of chess. I love how it advances with your skill level as well.

    Hours of fun for kids!

    Chess Made Simple is a beginner learning chess set labelled for ages 8 and up. However my 4 year old had a blast playing with his 8 year old sister, so I'd say younger kids can enjoy this game too. The chess pieces have detachable bases with directional arrows o them, indicating how the pieces move around the board. There are Move Cards that help show how the pieces move, too. The other deck of cards has 3 levels - the basics, simple strategy, and mighty moves. These levels are essentially the learning cards of how to play the game, and how to plan strategies to win. The game board itself is also double sided with a learning side and a regular playing side. The squares are labelled to reference the cards so it is easy to understand what they are trying to teach. My kids already knew the basics of chess before playing this game, but have since been able to understand more strategy and how to plan their moves, with the help of the advanced levels of this game. A wonderful fun learning game, that gets kids thinking!

    Great for everyone

    This is so cool! My kids have been interested in chess for a while. The problem is that my knowledge is limited. I taught them the moves, and they would play (poorly). This game is helping us all out. I was reminded of rules I forgot about and learned a few new things.
    There are learning cards in three levels that give a bit of history, basic moves, strategies, strong moves, and little challenges. The board is two-sided for beginners and advanced.
    I think this would be a great gift for kids/families wanting to play chess. I see it getting a lot of use in our house.

    Chess Made Simple Beginner Learning Chess Set

    I received this game to test out and give my honest opinion about.
    first of all it was packaged inside the box so well nothing moved when it was banged around and dented by Canada Post. ugh
    I love that it has 2 sides of the board, one the regular game board and the other side to show what pieces go where, and that it came with detachable bases so you can see where the pieces go on that side of the board.
    there is some learning cards to get to know the moves, and the move cards show the powers of each piece see how they move.
    Is a great family night game do teach both my Son and I how to play!

    Thank you so much for this opportunity

    Step by step started chess set

    My son was very excited to get this game. He always wanted one and now has the option to easily teach his sister how the game is played. The game cards are written out in detail and are easy to understand. They have been at this game for days not. Love seeing lots of giggles instead of arguments. This is a perfect game for someone wanting to learn how to play chess.
