Why won't anyone respond to our posts??? I've been stuck on this stupid chessboard for days, and need some help getting out of it. Why can't we just skip it? It goes too fast for the human eye to keep up and if you don't watch where you click in a square, even if it is the correct one, you lose a chess piece! This is just wrong!

I have actually answered this problem in another forum thread. I think someone asked about it in the Support Forum a while back. Here's how I did it in the end (I'll have to split it over two posts because of the word limit):

1. Put a double-thickness (just to be on the safe side) of cling-film over your monitor/laptop screen. (No, I'm not crazy..)

2. Use a black marker pen to write on the cling film - label each 'free' square of the chessboard with a letter of the alphabet, when you get to Z go on to numbers for the last few squares. The letters/numbers on the black squares will be harder to read, but you could use a whiteout/correction-pen for the black squares.

3. Take a pen and paper. Keep your eyes on the chessboard. The moment you click the mouse and the sequence starts, say the letters/numbers out loud quickly as they go, to help memorise them, then immediately write the sequence down on the paper as soon as they stop. (Hence not using numbers all the way through - above 11 or 12 they start getting too long to say/process mentally, letters are quicker and easier)

4. You can take as long as you like to click through the sequence so take care, and remember, the INSTANT you click the last one, the next sequence will start, so make sure you're truly ready for it before you click the last one!

Good luck!

This is not fair when I purchased the game it was under the old format or Real Arcade. At that time it said nothing about a chess game being a part of the game. If I had known it was in the game I never would have purchased it cause I do not know the first thing abot playing chess. I tried pulling up the rules for it on a site that shows the moves each piece can make but it is too hard to follow and this old lady can not understand the game now and could not when I was younger so never wanted to learn chess.
