This is really cool but the pieces could look better I can't really tell the difference between the bishops rook kings queens etc.

Ok coolest thing ever...love it so much I'm thinking of learning chess just so I can get a board.....you won't regret

Awesome concept and great magnets, I just wish that the board itself didn’t get so scratched up by the pieces. Overall a great product, which is why I’m rating this 5 stars.

This is the only one I find that is compact, good quality, and good looks for travel.

The Venture Boards are awesome! The portable chess sets are already getting tons of use during downtime, sparking friendly competition and good conversation. They’re sturdy, easy to move anywhere, and a great way to build teamwork and give everyone a chance to relax and think. These have been a huge hit for our Squadron!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I purchased a Chess Venture Board a few months ago and it has been absolutely amazing. I use it to practice puzzles from different chess books, and my fiancé and I have a Sunday tradition where we visit a new coffee shop, bring our board or Splendor Duel, and spend a few hours enjoying great coffee and friendly competition.

The quality of the board is excellent, and the customer service has been just as impressive. I loved it so much that I bought another one as a gift for a friend. When one of the ranks on that board wasn’t perfectly flush, the Venture Board team immediately sent a replacement so I could still gift it without issue.

Thank you, Venture Board team, for creating such a beautiful product and for your outstanding service. It’s rare to find a company that truly stands behind its craftsmanship like you do.

Perfect size for travel.

This chess board has been an amazing addition to my classroom. My students love playing chess, but recess is never long enough to finish a game. This board has completely solved that problem! A must-have for any classroom with chess lovers.

Watch your favorite chess player's eyes light up when they immediately understand what the VentureBoard can do for them.

These are an excellent addition to the VentureBoard XL Chess set - these checker pieces are exquisitely made to fit the board - with this addition I can literally have both chess and checkers with a single board - the custom design for the XL board, these fit perfectly - simply said: get these if you are looking for a both a chess and checkers on the go.

My search is finally over - I was looking everywhere for a Go board that does exactly what this Go board does - it is incredibly portable and elegantly made - the color scheme of the board is incredible - the black and orange really looks sharp and the pieces are well made and stays in place.

If you are looking a physical practice board that will completely save your work this board is for you - if you are looking to have a small Go board that you can take on a hike with you so you could play on a scenic vista, this is the Go board is for you!

This little bored is extremely convenient and easy to use. It just rolls open, and I can pick up in the middle of a game at any time. I use it now for solving chess problems when I'm on the go. It's a quality product, and I can't wait to see which other games will be produced!

I have been looking for my grail portable chess set for years. This is the closest to perfect yet. It is the only design where if you don’t drop or bump it hard your pieces will remain where you left them. You unroll the board and there is your paused game. Feels magical. Apart from tiny pegged chess sets no others have been able to accomplish that that I’ve come across aside from Drueke which I find very clumsy to play with because the magnets are so strong. I bought one chess XL set from Amazon which arrived quickly. Not knowing it had extra queens (fantastic) I bought another via the website that was labeled as having them. I will definitely have use for it. The downside is that my set from the website is not making progress in the shipping process. It was shipped quickly, but after a couple days it stalled and has been “delayed” a couple miles from my house for around six days. There is no delivery date estimate. So, fantastic board for many reasons including durability, solid customer support and top notch design, but I am not impressed with the shipping process from the website so far. Here’s hoping it arrives soon.

I take it everywhere!

This is perfect for games on the go. Thanks to the foldable design and strong magnets, there’s no need to photograph the last position and reset the board to continue a game. Just fold it up, go, and fold it back out. Unmatched portability!
