A lot of reviews are saying this is a hard game at the lower levels. It's actually very beatable even at the mid levels. At level 4 it will still lose it's Queen over another piece. A chess game should make blunders on the lower levels to mimic a beginner playing another beginner. It's very hard for a new player to learn if they can't win a few. Based on the reviews perhaps the first few levels should be easier.

Delightful!

I'm relatively new at this game and keep getting slaughtered on level 1 out of 10. This SHOULD be a challenging game, but not so much on level 1.

What... it's chess!
