Sturdy Design
Drop it. Shake it. Roll it up mid-game. Sturdy magnets on every piece keep your game right where you left it. The VentureBoard is durability tested to withstand all sorts of environments.
Travel Friendly
At 3 x 6 inches when rolled, the Venture Board is the most travel friendly chess board ever created - easily fitting in a cupholder, bag, or purse. It's perfect for instant travel, allowing you to pause your game at any time and resume it whenever you want.
Frequently asked questions
How does Ventureboard save games?
The pieces are strongly magnetized with neodymium magnets that bind them to all parts of the chess board and storage area. This means that they will stay put through most adventures you might go on, short of directly dropping Ventureboard onto a hard surface from over a foot up, your game will stay in place.
Where do I put pieces that are captured?
Captured pieces can be stored at either end, where the magnetic pieces stick just as well.
How water-resistant is the bag?
The bag included with Ventureboard is water-resistant.
Do Pieces bump into each other when rolledup?
While they might touch each other when Ventureboard is rolled up, pieces will never move each other off of their respective chess squares. This means that your game will be saved regardless of the game state.
How does it stay closed?
Large embedded neodymium magnets on both ends hold the board closed, more strongly that probably any other chess board on the market.
Customer Reviews
This will come in very handy when I study.
I have purchased 2 Venture Boards before, one for my husband and one for my library's Chess Club. I am a children's librarian and we hold a chess tournament every summer. Last years board was a big hit and the kids specifically asked to have the chance to win another. They are even more motivated to win the new XL model. They love the new design of the pieces and how it's huge, but still compact enough to carry around. Absolutely perfect. VentureBoard will be a staple at Wharton County Library.
My family of 6 all love to play. We don’t leave the house without. Really really my son even ask our friends to play him. It really cool. And love that they play chess when we are out and not on phones as much! And the customer service it’s top tier and I had questions!
Purchased this for my 6 YO grandson as he flies a lot. Now he can play chess without worry of losing pieces or his place in a game midstream (or mid-flight) and it is deftly packable in his backpack. It’s not an inexpensive game board but it’s proven it’s worth already in less than 2 weeks…I highly recommend it.
Amazing gift! Thank you!
