Chess or Checkers?

i like either,but i prefer chess. i just can't get anyone to play anymore it's hard to find anyone who wants to play board games.

Havent played checkers for a long time and I have never played chess before. I prefer checkers. Cos the king or the queen can jump and fly from one end to the other ....LOL...I don't like chess. It involves too much thinking.....dont want to tax by brain!!! LOL

Hey gitfiddldplayef!I feel the same way.LOL As a matter of fact I was thinking of playing checkers. I havent played in a long time!LO

Which checkers do you mean? I know only one indoor game called "Chinese Checkers" and I love it. We did not have to say "King Me!" in it. As for Chess, I have no brains for it, and don't mind not having the brains for it too. Cheers and happy mylotting

Hmmm, I prefer to play checkers, because it's easier and takes less concentration. Plus, the games does not go on and on and you don't have to think so hard that it hurts your head. It is fun to play chess. However, I usually get my you-know-what kicked at that, plus, it's hard to remember how each piece moves. I try to play it on my computer once in awhile (it was loaded on it). Just let me say, the computer ALWAYS wins (well, at least when the other player is me)! PearlGrace

I've never learnt checkers, but I've been taught chess a number of times. The trouble is that my memory is obviously lacking and I forget the different moves between one game and the next! My son recently learnt, and I really must reteach myself so that he has someone to play.

Hi there, I honestly don't know how to play either one. I think checkers is easier to play than chess, right? I just have never had a set or anyone that was interested in the games to play them. I guess most everybody has played one or the other, but not me. Are they easy to learn?

I dun play chess but i like to see ple playing chess.. Be it english chess or chinese chess, it's equally exciting for me ^_^ But too bad, i dun have to skills to win and patience to think of my strategy.. LOL

I am with you. Checkers for me. I never finished learning how to play chess.One day I am sure my hubby will teach me, taking up where my dad left off. Checkers is always fun, even when I don't win.

I like to play chess but it's been so long since I had a game!!

I have played both checkers and chess,and I believe they are both fun,even though chess can take a while, and it was a lot harder for me to learn every move and play,it has been so long since I played chess I have forgotten how,but everyone knows how to play checkers, so I guess I would say checkers is my favorite especially if I want to relax,but if I am in the mood to think and strategize then chess would be my favorite.

Hi u bring back old memories dear...well when we were kids and teenagers often on holidays and vacations we used to play checkers and we used to play chess boys Vs Girls my dad and bro together and my mom and me oneside those were beautiful afternoons..now also we play but mainly chess, scrabble and Carrom it is a nice quality time we spend with each other..have a grt day

I like Chess, not often I get to play against anyone tho, since none of my friends like Chess very good, and they are usually better than me..

I love both, however, I think the chess is more stimulate your mind, when you win ,you could be happier because it is so hard to win!
