5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent followup
My son (age 11) has enjoyed learning chess with the previous 2 Fritz and Chesster titles and Chess for Winners is just as good as the others. Where the 1st 2 titles take you through the basics of how to play and basic tactics and strategy this program builds on the basics. I've already noticed an improvement in his play after only a few days of working with this program.

good for kids; a little slow and unwieldy
My 7 yr old and his 4 yr old brother really enjoyed this game. As an adult, I don't care for it at all, but I'll split the difference and give it a 3 star rating. It entertains and teaches in its own slow, insipid way. I have a feeling if we'd started with the first installment, vs this third one, it might make more sense.

My children have now worked through all three Fritz & Chesster games, and they love them. They are fun, and they do a good job teaching chess fundamentals in a way that engages the child. They are probably on the clunky side for true gamers, but I still highly recommend them.

I especially like the idea of how the game gets the kids emotionally invested. In reality, this is a series of chess problems, but they have turned it into a nice narrative.
I like that the goal is to win 16 virtual stuffed animals for 16 virtual kings.

We purchased this pack for our daughter who is almost 5 years old. She is totally into this product and spends a good few hours trying to beat GRAND DAD WHITE!!
We feel it is definitely a good buy as she is gaining a subtle insight into the game of chess in a very entertaining, challenging and stimulating manner.
