Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just recieved my Phantom Chess game and immediately experienced the first disappointment before I removed it from the box. On the cover of the box it states that the computer uses three languages, English, French and GERMAN! One of the reasons that I bought it was because it was advertised as speaking Spanish. In the instruction manual, they even say it speaks English, French, and Spanish, but for some reason mine speaks German instead of Spanish. I also noticed that the instruction manual mentions an optional AC/DC cord although I have no idea where one can be purchased. I will have to probably write to the manufacturer to find one. The biggest disappointment by far was the "magical" way the device moves it's pieces. The moving mechanism under the board is very noisy and you must watch closely because it doesn't always move the pieces to the places it intends, and often displaces surrounding pieces from their positions. So far, I've only played two games on the device, hoping that the noisy mechanism gets quieter and that it operates better, but I don't have much hope. I feel just a little relieved that I didn't spend a lot of money on it, although I see it priced as high as $160, I only had to spend $85 through Amazon. Maybe I'll return it because it's really not even worth that much.
