Software Learn to Play Chess with Fritz and Chesster

Domain Name Com's - Software : Learn to Play Chess with Fritz and Chesster


  

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Takes the intimidation out of learning chess for young and old.
Chess, the game of kings. So many pieces with different ways of moving. So much history with thousands of known tournaments, great names, and tactics.

Lets face it, to someone new to chess, this can be an intimidating game.

This software uses a subtle and humorous, often tongue-in-cheek, approach to teaching kids how to play chess. No, this isn't the greatest graphics you will see on a computer, but it is entertaining while teaching you or your kids how to play chess.

Understand, this is for beginners. If you are a chess devotee at any level, this may be charming to downright obnoxious all depending on your outlook.

If you want to take a light and fun approach to learning chess this is a great adventure.

There are gentle lessons for how each piece moves.

Learning how a bishop moves includes smashing toilets (without being offensive or crass). The smashing noise is so perfect that it is one of my kids favorite activities.

The queen lesson is hokey as are a few others.

The knight and pawn lessons appear simple, but it takes a few tries to "get it".

The software could use better instructions, but keep the sound on and move your cursor around the screen and you will figure it out. Always watch the cursor and try the right side of the screen when you think the scene should be moving forward.

Basic strategies are also taught and you get to play various opponents who range from easy to moderately difficult to beat. A good way to build confidence by beating some opponents early with what you have learned, but then being challenged by better opponents later.

All in all, this is the best beginning software for kids (and light hearted grown-ups) to get started with the game.




Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Worst game theory and setup EVER
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.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best computer chess game for kids
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%.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent!
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.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great introduction for Kids
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.
