Chess
A two-player strategy board game played on a checkered gameboard with 64 squares arranged in an 8×8 grid. Each player begins with 16 pieces, and each type of piece moves differently, with the most powerful being the queen and the least powerful the pawn. The objective is to checkmate the opponent's king by placing it under an inescapable threat of capture. To this end, a player's pieces are used to attack and capture the opponent's pieces, while supporting each other. (wiikipedia.org)

Once I learned the 4 move checkmate I was unstoppable against everyone in the chess club. Yes, I was in the chess club, but for some odd reason, we were all mostly jocks with very few nerds. Canada really is Bizarro world.

It's a great game, but - unlike Go, a game I absolutely love - it almost always grows boring very fast for me. So though I can definitely see the appeal, I have to admit that I don't really enjoy playing it.

After you learn the basics, it becomes a matter of learning off tons and tons of openings. A more strategic game is probably Go, except I was never able to learn that one. Or maybe one of the random variations of chess.

There's not much to say about chess. It's a perfectly balanced board game and it's probably the most influential game of all time. Plus, this game has been played for well over a millennium, so it had to have done something right. If you like turn-based tactics games, you'll like chess.

Still the greatest board game ever as far as I'm concerned. Only a 9 instead of a 10 because it's only ever really at its most enjoyable when both players are at a very close skill level, but when you find that perfect chess partner I can play a dozen games a day without getting bored. Favorite chess thing: When you fork someone's king and queen and snatch up that queen, lol

Comparing Chess to video games... Well, in my experience, the harder you try to win, the less fun the game is. Playing against an amateur can be enjoyable and quick paced. Playing against someone as skilled as you are... well, it gets boring quick.

i know what to expect from lisa- at this point but i admit daisoujou's review has triggered me a little. edit: i've been playing competitive chess since i was 8 years old, played for my county, won a few tournaments etc. i'm still pretty shit at it in the grand scheme of things but i love it very much. i'm coltaine1 on gameknot.com if anyone wants a correspondence game.

My main problem with this game is the way that it seems to be at its most enjoyable when both sides know very little about established strategies and are just winging it.
