From the Manufacturer Everyone knows the best part of Chess is capturing your opponent's pieces. Solitaire Chess makes the best part the whole point. Players get 10 pieces, two each of the Knight, Rook, Pawn and Bishop, one each of the King and Queen, and 40 challenges. Set pieces on the board according to the challenge cards, and proceed to capture each one, but only by using the same moves allowed in traditional Chess. Players have to capture a piece with every move, so the game is fast-paced and always exciting. Ages 8 to Adult. Review: EXCELLENT PUZZLE FOR EVERYONE - Love it! This is a challenging puzzle game that is easy to play for anyone. It kept my 83 year old father interested for hours and hours as he worked from beginner to Expert level and he still has a few puzzles to go. He can easily redo puzzles and challence himself for quite a while per session. Many other family members also challenged themselves to solve the puzzles as well. Wonderful gift and is appropriate for all solitaire puzzle people! And Chess players who want a fun challenge!.. The quality of product is great. Pieces are a nice weight and size, easy to hold, and securely fit into the round indents in the plastic top perfectly (so that they don't move around unintentionaly during play). It all stores away in a compact form and keeps everything safe. I will definitely buy the other version and enjoy a whole new set of puzzles. Love the system of numbering and classifing beginner to expert level puzzles so that you can progress along each puzzle in order - learning on the way. Review: Great game to teach someone how to play chess! - I'm not sure who invented this concept of teaching chess, but it's brilliant! My 4 year old recently got into checkers from one of his teachers at his school. He soon mastered it and was quadruple jumping us before we I could even think about my next move!! When he started showing an interest in chess, and of course, I having such limited knowledge of knowing how to play chess but did not want to appear "dumb" in front of my 4 year old, did the next best thing next to teaching him myself and purchased something that could teach it to him (and hopefully myself, without letting him know that I too was learning at the same time...) He absolutely loved it and caught on pretty easily. I did have to review what all the pieces did and how they moved about the board, but once we got the hang of it (and of course he picked up on that faster than I did), he loved to think about the pieces and how to move them around. I will say that I had to reference the cheat sheets in the back (there are pages in the back of the reference book provided that guide you along to make sure you are doing it right). But it was an awesome refresher for me and a great tool to teach chess for my 4 year old. My son is not yet 5, but he's already getting down the game pretty well, thanks to this game. I highly recommend! ## Features - Trusted by Families Worldwide - With over 50 million sold, ThinkFun is the world's leader in brain and logic games. - Develops critical skills - Develop logical deduction, spatial reasoning and critical thinking skills through fun gameplay. - What you get - Comes with board, 10 chess pieces, and 60 beginner to expert challenges.

The write-up says 40. Which is correct when bought from Amazon?** A: There are 60 challenge cards. **Q: Are the puzzles the same as the newer version with 80 puzzles ?** A: I am not sure. I believe older verison has less puzzles n better quality. Hope this helps! **Q: Are all 60 puzzles different than the new version with 80 puzzles?** A: Hello. Solitaire Chess Brain Fitness has 80 all-new challenges that differ completely from those included in Solitaire Chess Classic. **Q: is it challenging enough for a Above average 12yr boy** A: My son is in first grade, seven years old. He has been playing beginner chess for about two years, and has this year been doing an hour of chess club once a week as after school enrichment. He was able to tear through all of the beginner puzzles in less than an hour and I believe the first one he got stuck on was #28. So he got almost halfway through incredibly fast, which was to be expected. Now, it will be harder and will take far more logic and thinking to figure out the puzzle. I think the older are, and the longer you've been playing the more cards you'll be able to get through very quickly, but then you, too, will get stumped eventually.
