We love Chess Titans!! It enabled my son (the only kid in his class who could play) to enjoy a two player game with a buddy of his who hadn't learned the game yet. His buddy didn't really know what was happening, but the two of them were having fun with a computer game while my son got his chess fix.

He and I used to play more with a real board, but he used to knock the pieces over so often (wiggly ADHD kid)... it was frustrating. Anyway, Chess Titans is good.
