Loaded Chess Teaching Game for Great Price

In case you are not familiar with the Chessmaster series, like I was when I initially purchased this game, Chessmaster is an excellent teaching chess game. Players of all skill level will be able to find something worthwhile to take away from this game. Whether you are starting out from scratch and don't know a Rook from a Bishop, or you know the basic moves but are wonder how the heck people ever develop chess strategies, or even if you're searching for Bobby Fischer...this game has everything to meet your needs.

The basics are taught to you via lessons ranging from explaining what each piece is and how it moves, and even the best ways to play said piece...to some of the more advance moves like "castling," but it's not all about teaching; Chessmaster includes a rigid points system that allows you to play ranked and unranked games on or offline, whereby you can play opponents below your level, at your level, or that far exceed your level in hopes of improving your skills.

Whether you are looking to learn how to play chess, wanting to dust the cobwebs off of your collegiate game you once commanded, or looking to challenge current day chessmasters...Chessmaster is definitely the game for, and is a steal at its' current price.

Worth the $20

The first person to review this product, SleepyJD, must own a copy since he stated that this is chess for people who have no friends.

Chess for lazy people.

This is chess for people who are too lazy to set up their board or have no friends. I think it should be a 9.99 bargin title.

Terrific Game
