Customer Reviews of Learn to Play Chess with Fritz and Chesster (Mac)
wrong version sent i was sent the wrong version (windows instead of mac) - but the box did say it was mac version. when i phoned customer service i was expecting the run-around. instead, i got a lady named "jen" (foreign accent) that was extremely helpful and polite!! she promptly requested another be sent, and that amazon check inside to make sure that it's the correct version prior to shipping, and sent a return address label to my e-mail address so i would not have to pay for return shipping. i was rather on the fuming side prior to speaking to "jen" - so thankful that i received her on my customer service call!!
Learning is fun
This game is well designed, bright, colorful and attractive. It captured and continues to captivate its 7-year old user - he loves the game-like challenges and learns and hones the fundamentals of chess along the way, on his terms. The fairy-tale characters are likable and credible and guide the student nicely through the mazes of the fairy tale story and the real game of chess. They use proper and correct English. Most speak American, one speaks a highly cultured but pleasant and unstilted form of British. As students acquire skills the program rewards them with access to new games and with periodic promotions; and as they accomplish specific tasks they are sometimes celebrated for them - complete with music and flowers. Kids just love challenges and positive feedback - and this program excels at both.
Great way to learn chess.
This program has a slightly forced story line, but that doesn't get in the way of a wonderful multimedia learning experience. You don't need to know anything about the game to start, but you will be able to play as a competent beginner by the end. A good chess program is built-in for kids to play, even after they've completed all of the lessons. The mini-games (that teach principles of movement and tactics) are creative and fun. My daughters keep playing them, even after they learned how to play the proper game. I bought this for my 8 year old daughter, but the mini-games are fun enough that her 4 year old sister likes to play them! The later lessons are good continuing and repeating tactics practice. Between the fun mini-games and later practices, this CD can has high replay even after completing all the sections.<
