Review: GreatIntroduction to Chess--You Could Make This On Your Own - Bottom line: you could make your own set of six directional cards for each piece. No Stress Chess provides several advantages for anyone new to the game--including me. I purchased this No Stress Chess set to introduce my grandchildren to the game. So far, it is the four-year old who likes to play it. The older ones prefer checkers, though they do like to put the chess pieces on top of the checkers to liven up the game. ( Note to other adults with a similar goal, I wish I'd introduced chess to the others by at least five years of age.) After two games, my granddaughter could correctly arrange the pieces on the board and by the fifth game she decided to challenge herself and use the standard or "grown-up" side of the board without referring to the picture on the back of the box. From the beginning, we used the cards to see which way a piece could move. At first, we each got a set of cards consisting one each of a rook, a knight, a bishop, the king, the queen and a pawn. Later she decided we could share one set which she would line up off to the side of the board. Each card has the name of the piece at the top, a clear picture of the piece, and another picture of a small chessboard with arrows that show the direction the piece may move. Initially, the most helpful card was for the pawn, because it clearly shows that it can move twice the first time, once afterwards, and can only take another piece with a diagonal move. Without the card, this would have been difficult to explain.--we're still working on the "horsie." We found all the directional cards quite useful. Actually, imo, these directional cards are the best part of this game. Being able to refer to them allowed my granddaughter to be much more independent while learning. The cards provide visual aids that make the basic concepts much easier to grasp than verbal instructions alone. She didn't have to ask me about the rules over and over and she could actively participate from the first game. On her own, she learned to use the cards to plot strategy, for instance, figuring out how to sacrifice the pawn to free up her rook. Being able to refer to the cards allowed her to be confident and independent from the beginning. In short, they're great. We have not used the cards that suggest moves, so I can't comment on them. Maybe we will use them some day, but I rather doubt it. If you already have a chess set, you could easily refer to the illustration on the box provided here on desertcart and make your own set of six directional cards. The box is shiny and quite attractive. The pieces are black or white, lightweight plastic, the pawns are about an inch high and the king is about two inches high. The side of the chessboard that provides "hints" has the name of the piece printed on its beginning position, and it hasl arrows showing how a pawn can move the first time. No Stress Chess definitely made learning chess easy and enjoyable for both of us. The price is reasonable and I do not regret this purchase. But we already have two chess sets so this is just one more to store. Based on my experience using No Stress Chess, were I to do this again, I'd have taken a picture of the rook, knight, bishop, queen, king, and pawn from my own chess set and printed them out. Using your computer or colored pencils, you could include the name of the piece and a small chessboard on which you've drawn the directions that piece can move. Either way, this is a great way for kids and adults to learn to play chess. To encourage her, I've let her win a few times, but she's also surprised me with a checkmate more than once.

## Features

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it tell what moves to make like a teacher**
A: It tells you HOW the moves work, but it is not an electronic teacher. The directions DO give info for more advanced play including strategy. But I am finding students with and without special needs pick up strategy as they go. Also, the leveled directions that are an option between going to regular chess help structure critical thinking and strategy skills.

**Q: My 5yo already plays. Does this teach more advanced moves or just the basics?**
A: It teaches only the basics regarding how the pieces move.  You can play a regular game of chess or use the cards provided in which case the cards will tell you what to move, there is no strategy involved when using the cards.

**Q: In the beginning we have to discard a number of cards until we draw enough pawn cards, since those are the first to move..  Is this correct?**
A: My students recently pointed out my shortcut was partially wrong. Because we typically have half an hour, maybe 40 minutes to play, I have had each player make their 1st move with a pawn, choosing 1 or 2 spaces. But as they played more THEY figured out the knight can also be a first move. So proud of them! So we adapt it that way, 1st move is pawn or knight, then we select cards.

It is also great at being able to balance out different skill levels. A newer or less skilled player doesn't get crushed quickly by the strategy skills of their opponent. So it is a great way for kids to teach other kids how to play.

**Q: Is this game something a 6 or 8 yr. old could play?**
A: My (very intelligent and motivated) 5 year old daughter is loving playing it.  My less interested 6 year old daughter needs the occasional clarification from Dad as to how exactly the pieces move but she still seemed to enjoy herself.  My 3 year old son got a real kick out of playing with me, obviously with lots of help from me, but still making the decisions on his own as to where to move each piece.  This set really takes all the hurdles out of the equation.
