Would you like to play a game?

On a more serious note, 42 all time classics is a better value buy, surely?

Depends on how into chess you are, I guess. 42 all time classics is OK for a quick game, but this sounds more like it will actually teach you how to play.

What happened to Battle Chess? If that came out on the DS I'd buy it.

I'm impressed that they're trying to improve chess though, because if there's one thing the hundreds of years have shown us it is that chess is fundamentally broken, and needs a side-order of mini-games.

The chess included in 42 all-time classics was a tad easy to say the least.

lol @ Ulrira.

The 42ATC chess is too easy, I can beat it every time on hard and I'm no expert. I'm not criticising, chess AI is far from trivial and it was only one game out of 42, but a targeted package should be much more challenging.
