1) It's simple to learn, so anyone can play it.

2) Including grandparents.

3) There is no blood or gore (calm down nerds I'm not talking about battle chess)

4) There is no storyline

5) Game sites are calling Chess casual.

6) It's sold a ton of copies.

 

Chess - casual game for the masses?

 

Bonus question:  Can you name one game *before* video games that was hardcore?

Go?

Dungeons and Dragons?

Mech Warrior Board game?

 

Good call, all around.  If you'd like to come over later we can play some D&D.  I have the newest descriptions of our characters, they're so advanced that the image you get in your mind when I tell them to you is like 1080p realistic.
