Chess Game - Easy Chess

Play:  Small | Medium | Large

Play this chess game against the computer as an excellent brain training exercise. Chess is a wonderful activity for improving concentration, visualization, and strategic thinking. To begin, click the Small, Medium, or Large link under the picture at left. This opens the game in a pop-up window. Then click the "Play" button to start a game, or click the "Rules" button for detailed instructions.

According to James Burton, the author of this game, Easy Chess is meant for chess beginners only. That means most of us have a chance to win a game or two!

To move a piece, first click the piece you want to move. Then click the square where the piece should be moved to. Your piece will move, then the computer will take a turn.

FOR BEST RESULTS:  Chess is a lot of fun, but it is limited. To really improve your brain, join the Lumosity brain training service. I use Lumosity every day, and it works.

A Lumosity session takes about 15 minutes per day. It is an effective, enjoyable way to keep your brain sharp.

Included free are customized brain training "courses" that boost core brain function (memory, attention, etc.) and peak performance (fluid intelligence, advanced memory). Other free, included courses are designed specifically for students and even medical conditions (ADHD, TBI, cancer recovery).
