We played yesterday and gave me a real run, almost beating me. I taught her the basic moves and downloaded Optime's chess for iPhone last month 1 month later she's addicted to this game, plays it whenever she has a few spare minutes.
My wife never played chess before and didn't even know the names of the different pieces. From the earliest beginner to the advanced. This game is for every range of chess experience. Most computer games are for the advanced.
