Customer Ratings & Reviews

It is a nice set, Good collectors item, It colorful and well crafted but i don't like the fact that Nintendo allowed Lugi and Bowser Jr to be the queen pieces and the pawns are coins and turtle shells. I would make Princess Peach and female bowser of some sort for queens and Goomba and toad for pawns. But good chess set over all

So chess is a very old but wonderful game! I was really excited about the mash up of my favorite video game with my favorite board game! I was able to share my passion for the game with my nieces and nephews. They wanted to play because they too enjoy Mario and gang. So overall it's really great to introduce young kids into the strategy of chess with a twist on this classic game!

My kids are learning to play chess and love this game.They also have a regular board which they use a lot, but play this one for fun.

I was very pleased with this game. The figures are solid and well done. My 5-year enjoyed learning chess on this set. The only problem we ran in to was that the kids wanted to play with the figurines all the time, and then they would be missing for chess. With really rough non-chess play, the bases came off of some of the pieces. I don't think this was a quality issue, My kids were just really hard on them as action figures. We ended up just buying a second game so we would have one set for chess and one set for toys. And given the price of Mario figurines, and the high quality of the pieces in the set, that was definitely the way to go. The only quality complaint that I have is in the chess board itself. The fold seams in the board wore out very quickly and the board came apart. They really need some way to reinforce it. When we got our second set, we pulled the board out and mounted it fully unfolded to a thin sheet of plexiglass to protect it. Yeah, it is more of a pain to store it now, but it's better than the board falling apart.

This is a cool piece to add if you are a mario or nintendo fan

Great crafted figures in brillant colors. Easy instructions.
