Pros
Pro Can be mixed with Spyfall 1
It will add more locations and make the game harder for experienced spies.
Pro Allows for really big parties (12 players max)
Pro An interesting twist on a Mafia-style game
The spy doesn't try to kill everyone, but to find out where he or she is and to blend with others. This unleashes the player's creativity in asking and answering in that way that only villains will understand it
Pro Classic
It's been an important mode of entertainment and education for more than a thousand years.
Pro Improves decision making ability

Pro Chess can be an enjoyable obsession
Pro Widely available
And if you can't find a chess board, pieces, and even another player, you can make your own.
Cons

It is very easy to reveal the spy in small teams.
