The story behind Family Chess Game

We designed Family Chess Game to turn a timeless classic into a warm, low-friction ritual. After years of teaching kids, parents, and first-time players, we distilled the clearest explanations into friendly reference cards and a quick-start booklet. The result is a set that lets you sit down, learn the basics in minutes, and still discover fresh depth as you improve.

Every component was chosen for comfort and clarity: a sturdy folding board that lies flat, weighted pieces with felt bases, spare queens for promotions, and compact storage that makes cleanup simple. It’s chess—thoughtful, balanced, and endlessly replayable—made inviting for busy families.
