Its simply amazing. You only need to build halve a board so its specially suited for lesser skilled players.
I am not even sarcastic,well for 50% sarcastic i guess. Chess is fun so chess set as a mechanic is amazing. And the trinket is pretty fun as well. But isnt this design a bit to much,the trinket works with literally everything. Building halve a board is a lot easier with most builds/tribes.
Either way,its a pretty fun trinket to get and play with. Play against maybe not that much but its certainly not unbeatable.
