'''Chess tables''' are objects used in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', ''[[The Sims Medieval]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4]]'' to raise the [[logic]] [[skill]] by playing [[chess]]. Chess tables require two [[chair]]s on both ends in order for them to be used. Sims can play alone or with a partner, and will socialize when doing the latter.

There are two
Sims with less than two nice points may attempt to cheat if they are playing with another Sim. The cheating Sim will distract their opponent and then attempt to rearrange the chess pieces. If they are caught, however, the Sim who caught the cheater will lose relationship points with them.
Like in ''The Sims'', the chess table can be used to improve the [[logic]] skill. If ''[[The Sims 2: Freetime|FreeTime]]'' is installed, playing chess raises [[enthusiasm]] for the [[games]] [[hobby]].

==The Sims 2 (console)==
There are three chess tables in ''[[The Sims 2 (console)]]'': the '''Post-Staunton "Strugatsky" Chess Set''', '''Psychonautica's Cerebro-Chess''' and the '''Prof. Feather's Chicken Checkers'''. They can be found under the "Skill" tab in the Buy Catalog.
Like in ''The Sims'', the chess table can be used to improve the [[logic]] skill. They can also be used to improve the [[mechanical]] skill and fun by playing paper football, but they must be playing against another Sim. The '''Prof. Feather's Chicken Checkers''' does not have the option to play paper football, but it does have an exclusive feature that allows the player to challenge Prof. Feather to win a golden egg.

===Post-Staunton "Strugatsky" Chess Set===
{{Infobox object
|name = Post-Staunton "Strugatsky" Chess Set
|desc = In the Victorian era, the "machined" Staunton style was adopted as standard to avoid arguments and duels. Uniformity meant lives saved. Firing all those chess craftsmen made it way cheaper too. Was it the right move? Are we all just pawns in a larger game? Is life one big joke? Best ask a Russian...

*Has the option to 'Play Paper Football' which improves Mechanical and gains fun only if the player is playing against another Sim. It doesn't improve anything at all if playing alone.
*This is one of the slowest skill building objects for Logic in the game.

===Prof. Feather's Chicken Checkers===
{{Infobox object
|name = Prof. Feather's Chicken Checkers
|desc = Her colleagues call her brilliant. Roosters she's roosted with complain she out crows them in the morning. What everyone agrees upon is that Professor Feathers plays a MEAN game of checkers and isn't afraid to strut her stuff on the board. Prepare for catastrophic defeat by fowl!

<br />'''Note:'''
*Has the option to 'Practice' which functions the same way as the other chess tables.
*Has the option to 'Play', which challenges Prof. Feathers to a game of checkers and does not improve logic. A golden egg will be awarded if the player wins, which can only be used as an ingredient for food recipes. The chances of winning is increased depending on the player's logic skill.
*Despite the object claiming to gain fun, it does not. However, this does function properly in ''[[The Sims 2: Pets (console)]]''.
*Has the option to 'Set Alarm' which is supposed to make Prof. Feathers crow in the morning, but doesn't seem to do anything.
*This is one of the slowest skill building objects for Logic in the game.
*12,100 Aspiration points is needed to unlock.
