Great Game [Posted on 2007-03-08]
My 7-year-old son loves this game; he is an avid chess player and has 3 Fritz&Chesster games now!
Excellent followup [Posted on 2007-06-25]
My son (age 11) has enjoyed learning chess with the previous 2 Fritz and Chesster titles and Chess for Winners is just as good as the others. Where the 1st 2 titles take you through the basics of how to play and basic tactics and strategy this program builds on the basics. I've already noticed an improvement in his play after only a few days of working with this program.
good for kids; a little slow and unwieldy [Posted on 2008-01-29]
My 7 yr old and his 4 yr old brother really enjoyed this game. As an adult, I don't care for it at all, but I'll split the difference and give it a 3 star rating. It entertains and teaches in its own slow, insipid way. I have a feeling if we'd started with the first installment, vs this third one, it might make more sense.
