As far as computer chess games go, it's not the greatest, but it's very far from the worst. It's a really great game for beginners, though, for kids who want to learn the basics, or anyone who's been struggling to really find their own strategy . especially after being brutalized by real life chess aficionados for an ungodly amount of time like me. It's nice to go over the basics again, and to play against an AI that walks you through it as if you were just learning the game for the first time. It's got a bit of a silly pretense, being taught by Bobby Fischer, especially considering that these days most kids will likely have no idea who he is, but as for the game itself, it definitely deserves a second glance. If you're looking for a flat out chess battling system there are other games that would suit your needs better, but then again, everyone needs a refresher course of the basics, for someone to walk them through the game by the hand every now and then! Starting from the beginning really helped me, to the point that I feel I have the confidence to play my sister in real life again, huzzah!
