5 out of 5 stars simply the best   November 14, 2008
There just is not anything else out there that teaches chess to kids so nicely!


5 out of 5 stars Alsolute good program for young beginner   July 16, 2008
My young one don't want to get off from game until I have to drag him away. It's aboslute good program for the beginner.


5 out of 5 stars My 7-year-old son really enjoys it!   June 28, 2008
I recently bought this for my son's seventh birthday. He has tried it out, and he enjoys it. I am pleased with the purchase.


1 out of 5 stars tot6al disappointment   June 5, 2008
This is a poorly working program with no instructions or intuitive flow. It would not allow me to bypass its practice regimes which offered no explanations and so were useless and frustrating. It would not allow me to play chess in any mode without graduating from its pre-requisites.After an hour of frustration my five year old asked if we could just go back to the original "board game". I threw the program in the garbage.


3 out of 5 stars good for older kids   May 13, 2008
I would recommend this product for older kids. Not for introducing to younger kids. I find the Dinasour CHess very good for beginners. My 4 year old son really grasped the basic concepts of Chess very well by playing Dinasour chess
