Long story short, I learned how to play chess on this game, I've been DYING to play more chess with this game, it took me YEARS To realize the opening was a big Elvis Presley joke, and if I get this back I can challenge my family in this game. I miss it.
This is the game that taught me how to play chess! I don't have my original disc anymore (after losing it in a flood), and even if I did I don't think I'd be able to get it to run on anything. I've struggled to even find if someone had created a ROM I could try to manipulate into playing the game through some sort of emulator. It's truly a classic, and one that should have never been lost to time in the first place.
Its a charming, beginner friendly version of Chess and It has scooby-doo style animations for your attacks. Its really difficult to get running on windows as it expects a floppy drive for some reason and has random crashes.
One of my first games that I owned as my game. Not my dad's, mine. Loved it. Kids are starting to get into Chess, and they already love Legos. This is a no brainer for me.
