 Worst game theory and setup EVER, 2007-04-04
This is the stupidest game I ever saw for sale- my kids laughed at how poorly the graphics and story were. What a complete waste.

 The best computer chess game for kids, 2007-02-09
We bought it 1 month ago to help my almost 6 year's old sun to learn how to play because I didn't know how to play and I couldn't teach him. As a result of this purchase
1) My sun fall in love with chess and become so good player that I couldn't imagine
2) I (his mom) learned how to play too.
It is so much fun to learn it that I would recommend it to anybody. It worth it every penny I spent. I like everything about this game. Kids will love it 100%.

Excellent!, 2007-02-05
This is a great chess game. It comes with an animated tutorial and various games that teach young children how to move the chess pieces and also discusses beginning chess strategy. This is my second copy of the game the first one got scratch and I could no longer use it. In fact, the only bad thing I would say about the game is that it doesn't completely install on your computer. In order to play the game you have to insert the disc in your computer.

Great introduction for Kids, 2007-01-14
We purchased this for my 6 year old son and 7 year old daughter since both children have been asking me to help teach them how to play chess the last several months. While I have been able to get them started, I find that approach used in this software to introduce the game pieces and concepts has allowed their understanding of the game to grow.
Both kids enjoy using this software and, if I would let them, would spend hours at a time using the software.
My biggest issue with the software is the sound and animation. We continually have issues with the sound/animation not being in sync or the audio cutting in and out. We run this on a computer with plenty of processing power, memory, disk space, etc. It does not bother this kids too much, but I find it annoying.
All in all, a great tool to help my children learn the game.

This program led to many chess trophies, 2007-01-09
This is my first review but I just felt compelled to tell everyone about this terrific program. I bought this game when my children were in Kindergarten and second grade. Fritz and Chester's program is so engaging. There are rhymes and chants for each piece's moves as well as for some other "strategy-type" moves. For example, "A knight on the rim is ugly and dim." What a great way to teach kids to keep their knights in-play! This program teaches kids how pieces move and some simple strategies. I would recommend getting Fritz and Chester 2 now since you are going to get it after your kids learn to play! My boys both joined chess teams when they were in first and third grade. Their use of this computer game gave them the advantage to win several chess games in tournaments. Fritz and Chester 2 is also great and my boys, now in third and sixth grade, still play it!
