samuel gonzalez (bronx, NY, US)
I purchased this game for my eight year old sons birthday. I was a little optimistic at first but when the game arrived i was really happy with the quality of the metal box. my son was so happy and amazed with the board game. If your child is in love with mario this is the game to get him/her.

I got this set for my 10 year old. He loves all things Mario and this is a great way to introduce him to Chess. It is well made and will last for years to come.
Incredible Set of Mario Figures February 26, 2010
Karen (Charlotte, NC)
My son is having a Mario party for his 7th birthday. I was trying to do a Mario cake, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money. I decided that I would get a cake from Costco and decorate it with figures. But then, I had trouble finding the figures! This chess set is the perfect answer! There are 32 chess pieces- all Mario themed! Mario and Luigi are king and queen for the red side; Bowser and Bowser Jr. are King and Queen for the other side. Bishops are Princess Peach & Daisy vs. Magikoopa; Knights are Yoshi vs. Birdo; Rooks are Toad vs Goomba, and Pawns are Coins vs. Green Shells. Each piece is set on either a green or red base with the name of the chess piece embossed on it. My son is going to go crazy when he sees all the figures on his cake! And then he'll have a really fun chess game to play when he's not playing with the figures. The only slight negative about this set is the board which folds into quarters and may have the potential to come apart with time.
Great Introduction to Chess February 21, 2010
KJ (Detroit, MI USA)
My son found Super Mario Bros. Chess online and decided to buy it with his birthday money. The pieces are well made and sturdy. They are also clearly marked as to which type of piece they are: pawn,rook,queen,etc. I think using the Mario Bros. characters makes the game a little more fun to learn for younger kids. My son is 8 and he has been asking everyone to play chess with him since his game arrived. I think he would give it a two thumbs up and so do I.

I got this for my 13-year old. He really enjoyed it because he loved playing chess with the Mario characters. It's a good way to get kids to play a "thinking" game when they are normally more into video games.
