Instead of just playing digitally, students can now touch the pieces, learn the rules through real gameplay, and experience the excitement of timed matches. This is helping them strengthen not only their strategic thinking and concentration, but also important social skills like sportsmanship, patience, and communication.\r\n\r\nWe're deeply grateful to everyone who made this possible.
