Learn To Play Chess With Fritz & Chesster 2 (Mac)

Mac OS X | Viva Media, 2004

Fantastic Follow-up to Fritz and Chesster 1
My kids (6 and 8) are learning so much from Fritz and Chesster 2!! In fact, my 6 year old daughter started winning a few games at their local chess club after graduating to this game (from Fritz and Chesster 1). Today I decided to play with them (since they don't like to play against each other - they're still working on that "good sportsmanship" thing), and I let them team up against me. I ...

Flawed but worthwhile nonetheless
After trying out a number of chess training software packages, I have become a great fan of their use. Books provide information, but they are expensive and often limited in their scope. Software has the great advantage of being able to provide students of the game with a very large number of training exercises. This is indispensible for training in pattern recognition (the key to chess ...

excellent
Most products associated with Waitzkin are pretty good. This DVD is a snazzy introduction to the chess pieces and how they move. A few silly utterances by the protagonist.

Mixed Bag
I bought 4 of these videos and recently received the 5th as a gift. I had high expectations, but was disappointed in a few of these videos. So I want to give you a quality review that says something about the videos other than, "My kids watched these and think they're great" or "These videos are soooo boring." types of reviews. My bias is against the presentation style in the 1st video, ...

runs great on new macbook w/ OS 10.5
It's a great game. The kids are learning. And they love it! We've got all sorts of cousins and friends kids and everybody loves this games! I think chess is great for helping kids see things a few steps ahead. So for a kid who may have trouble with planning or thinking sequentially I think chess could potentially really help. First you have to teach them to move the pieces around and accept the ...

Some Problems - But Still Good
A friend from an Internet e-list and I purchased this at about the same time. We both own CT-Art for the desktop and love it. The version for the pocket PC, however, has some errors that I consider serious from the point of view of a serious chess student. The first is that the program does not allow for alternate successful moves or variations as the PC version does. In the PC version if you ...
