Category: Spil

I anledning af The New Yorkers hundrede års jubilæum har vi slået os sammen med det ikoniske magasin for at præsentere et nytænkt skakspil, der indfanger New York Citys sande ånd.

Denne særlige udgave byder på byens vartegn som skakbrikker – fra den altid vagtsomme Frihedsgudinde som dronning til duer, der flyver ind som springere, og de travle gule taxaer som bønder. Hver brik repræsenterer en del af New Yorks livlige karakter og skaber en legende hyldest til byen, der aldrig sover. Skakspillet er illustreret af Christoph Niemann, en fast bidragyder til The New Yorker.

Ava ★★★★★

The New Yorker's iconic cover art translated onto a chess set is such a clever concept, and the board feels substantial with a nice weight to it. It’s a conversation piece that actually plays well, which is more than I hoped for.

James U. ★★★★★

The illustrations on each square are so uniquely New York—it feels like flipping through a hundred years of the magazine while you play. Even the box itself is a conversation starter, and the pieces have a nice, hefty weight that makes every move satisfying.

Julian ★★★★★

The board has that classic New Yorker cover art woven right into the design, so it feels less like a game and more like a piece of art for the coffee table. Even my non-chess friends keep stopping to admire it while we play.
