I don't normally bother to review video games based on classic games or board games since the logic for them was figured out pretty early and most just became digital versions of the physical thing.

However, I do like it when people take a classic game and add something to it through the power of this medium, which is what brings us to Battle Chess. Nothing crazy here, just animated pieces and kill animations, but it was a cool first step in adding a visual flair to these established games that would only be possible in a video game version.
