Fun submitted by somewhere.gone on June 29, 2018, 10:45pm I like the big pieces, very fun!

Kids love it! submitted by tbbrown76 on June 30, 2018, 10:22am It makes cool clunky sounds when pieces bump. Great for indoors or outdoors. I give it 5/5.

Giant chess submitted by Varshini on July 3, 2019, 7:30pm I wish I knew how to play...my siblings had a lot of fun though.

A unique challenge submitted by toschag on July 17, 2019, 2:27pm When the board is bigger it changes your perception of the game. A fun way to play and have a fresh game of chess.

despite being the checker champion of my elementary scheool

Fun in theory submitted by Bethybeth07 on August 6, 2022, 12:02pm We find it isn’t used usually though as chess tends to take longer than people want to spend at a party

GREAT submitted by rebecca.perreault on August 8, 2022, 12:21pm Fun to borrow for outdoor parties and BBQs in the summer.

Great fun! submitted by Gr33nl3af on July 17, 2025, 7:53am We used this at our church picnic and it was a big hit! The pieces are lighter than we expected, but still sturdy! Do wish we had taken a larger vehicle to transport it. We hope to borrow this again for our next picnic!
