I much agree with you on chess, but how can you say that chess is preferred by you if you've never played checkers?

Personally I prefer chess over checkers for I'm in love with the idea of trying to see all aspects of things, and chess forces you to do so. My dad taught me how to play ever since the ripe age of 6, and I've hence always enjoyed the complications that come with chess. Checkers is a simplistic game that doesn't nearly challenge your thought process as much. Thus leading to my love for chess. Chess, unlike checkers can it turn expand your mind and/or keep it fresh and speedy. How? Simple, a German study found that by planning chess you exercise each side of your brain which overall by doing so leaves you with a higher IQ, decreased chances of Alzheimers by improving memory, increased problem-solving, critical, and foreshadowing skills, and it also greatly improves your concentration and creativity skills.

If you want a good quick game of something, which most people tend to when going for a board game, checkers is far superior to chess.

If you want an elongated game of deep thought and massive game changing moves, chess is the way to go but this is less commonly what people seek in a board game.

And why do you claim that many people prefer short games over longer games?

Same reason many people prefer quick sex to long sessions of it; time.
