I got this for my 7 year old son, who is a huge mario fan, but also wanted to learn about chess. The characters are useful for remembering the various types of moves and he has had a lot of fun playing. The good vs evil set up gives him motivation to win and thus he is learning in the process. A very good introductory set, for to teach kids who like the mario universe but might be confused by the normal chess pieces. 5 Stars *****
High quality, excellent opportunity for fun, excitement and learning chess for Mario Brothers lovers. Children of all ages would enjoy this. My children even love to use pieces as bath toys to continue the fun…. totally waterproof pieces.
This is a must buy for kids who love Mario Brothers and need an alternative to constant video games.
Product was even better in person than the picture showed. The game pieces were sturdy and very cool.
My son received this set for christmas this year. he does not play chess or show interest in learning he wanted it for the character pieces. he loves it and plays with it every day. the chess pieces are of wonderful quality, they are not cheap plastic but a sturdy, solid rubber. the pieces are also true to the characters in the mario video games. just a wonderful set and worth every penny.
I purchased this game for my eight year old sons birthday. I was a little optimistic at first but when the game arrived i was really happy with the quality of the metal box. my son was so happy and amazed with the board game. If your child is in love with mario this is the game to get him/her.
