Stylish Durable Plastic Braille and Sighted Chess Set, The Oldest and Most Popular Board Game, for Teachers, Family, Teens, and Gifts- by Blind in Mind, The Braille Superstore

Description

• Durable plastic playing board with 32 pieces. Each white playing piece has a tactile dot on top.
• Playing pieces are shaped differently to aid in tactile identification.

An accessible, completely tactile chess set for blind and visually impaired players - and their sighted friends and families. Now boasting square coordinates in Braille and raised-print! The plastic playing board measures 8.5 inches square, and features brightly contrasting colors for the black and white squares. What's more, the white squares are raised to make it a snap for anyone playing the game by touch to tell them apart from the black squares. Each square itself has a hole in the center, which the peg at the bottom of each piece snugly fits into. (This ensures that no chessmen will ever get knocked over or end up on the wrong squares.) The sturdy plastic chess pieces themselves are shaped differently, too; so it's easy to tell a pawn from a knight or the rook from the almighty king. Plus ... you guessed it ... each white piece has a large dot on the very top so that blind players can easily tell whether each piece is theirs or their opponents. Best of all, the board now has grid coordinates embossed in Braille and raised print on the bottom and left sides - for both players! (Letters A through H run along the bottom, and numbers 1 through 8 are on the left-hand side.) This enables blind and sighted chess-masters to reference square coordinates for clarity after making a move, or when participating in distance or online chess tournaments. Chess is such a widely played game that no one should ever be without a chess set. And since you don't even need to know a single letter of the Braille alphabet to play our version of chess (unless referencing coordinates), anyone who's just lost their sight will still be able to play the game they've always loved ...
