"Chess is an easy-to-learn game which provides educational benefits to K-12 students. Recently I learned about Tic Tac Chec, a chess variant which (like chess) promotes problem solving among its players. My son and I played several Tic Tac Chec games and together figured out a few strategies for our next playing session--Dr. Alexey Root, author of " Children and Chess: A Guide for Educators."

"One of our most popular teacher items. Tic Tac Chec teaches chess unlike any other product we've seen! A must have for any classroom!" Jeanne Voigt - Owner, Mindware catalog

"Simple chess! This beautifully crafted wooden board game combines Tic Tac Toe with chess to provide kids with an easy and fun way to learn chess strategies. Children enjoyed this two-player hybrid version and it proved quite helpful in mastering moves. Players found it quick to set up, quick to learn and quick to play. A great introduction to the classic game. Rating ***" Canadian Toy Testing Council

GAMES Magazine awarded TIC TAC CHEC their prestigious "GAMES 100" Award, calling the game easy to play but also "... a tricky little game even for chess masters".
