Could be arranged betterDec 27, 2008
By D. Mckinzie I bought this as a gift for an 18 year old family member who has won high-school chess tournaments several times. He really liked the game, but did comment that, with the three boards directly over each other, it was hard to keep track of where all the pieces were. He felt that if they were moved over just a bit, it would be easier. His uncle, who played several games with him, agreed. All in all, though, he was pleased with it and it's certainly a better tri-level choice than the mega-expensive "Star Trek" version!!

A lot of funNov 02, 2009
By Adam Glickman I have really enjoyed this variation of chess but suggest that you download the Millennium 3D chess rules and use those instead of the ones included in the box. A really nice set at an excellent price and a whole new way of thinking about chess.

Easy to Learn Rules but Bad ManufacturingNov 28, 2008
By EngineerBabe I ended up getting this for my boyfriend who likes chess but needed it to be a little bit more fun. He and a few of his friends learned the rules from the included guide fairly easily and had a good time playing it. The board itself was a little disappointing. It of course came in pieces but the black paint on the plastic boards was already scratched up as well as the aluminum support. What was really a problem was the fact that one of the screw holes for the boards wasn't tapped (i.e. no threads) so I had to get a friend to take it to a workshop do that. It was pretty annoying that something like that could have passed through inspection. All in all my boyfriend is really enjoying it...especially because he know kicks everyone's butts at it.

Strato FunJan 10, 2010
By A. J. Brannen Strato Chess with 3 levels was the hit of the day for our 16 yr old Grandson. It was high on his Christmas wish. He loves the challenge and is thinking of entering chess contests. It doesn't take up a lot of space on his desk, & light weight for carrying to his friends homes. I would have been nice to have had more description, the dimensions, weight & the type of material used. when ordering.

Christmas Gift for 14 year old - loves it!Jan 05, 2010
By Wendy My 14 yo requested this on his "santa" list. Looked everywhere locally for it, could not find it. Searched online found it here. He loves it. It comes in a game size box, so you have to put it together. Very simple to piece it together. We did run into a problem where the middle section screw hole was not quite drilled right, but we fixed it ourselves. Glad to see that it was plastic boards and not glass, as you know how kids break breakables. Perfect for a teenager.
