PlayShifu Tacto Chess Game Set
The Smartest Way to Master the Game of Kings!
PlayShifu Tacto Chess is the world's first immersive chess set that connects the classic strategy of the board game with the power of digital storytelling. Designed to take the intimidation out of the game, Tacto Chess uses your tablet as the board, allowing children to move real, physical figurines to trigger digital animations, character backstories, and strategic hints.
Whether your child is a complete beginner or a budding grandmaster, this set evolves with them. Through 500+ game levels and 100+ puzzles, it teaches everything from basic piece movement to advanced tactics like "The Sicilian Defense" and "En Passant." It's a brilliant way to build critical thinking, concentration, and spatial reasoning while keeping the experience fun and fast-paced.
