A good concept

I love the concept of this game. It puts an interesting twist on chess puzzles by making them more engaging. I honestly was having a lot of fun playing this game during the early stages. It is once I get to around level 30 when I am solving mates in 3. There really is not enough time to analyze the position. There are just so many things that need calculated in such little time that is not very fun anymore. What I would is give players the opportunity to click an analyze button on screen when you start the level and then you can calculate the mate. Which also pause the zombies to make it fair.

Really nice, fun idea/concept

But it gets pretty monotonous after a while. Having the setting option to change the board style and pieces would be nice (different colors and pieces). Also, the fact that it all the problems have the same amount of time to solve doesn’t seem right. Easier problems should have less time and more difficult problems should have more time.

Cute but trash

No introduction. Rules are simple. But it’s hard to see the pieces apart from each other. In the beginning you should be given more time. I played 10 puzzles before I ever noticed a coin. I still can’t figure out what I’m to jump over.

Too easy

Dear Creators, This game is fun and has potential, but it has way too many mate in 1 levels. Maybe make harder levels or create a daily challenge?

Game mechanic needs work

Assuming you want a fun way to learn how to scan the board quickly for mate options, the game falls down by not allowing you sufficient time to learn from failed attempts. Once you’re out of coins you’re stuck failing quickly over and over, but not gaining the knowledge you need to improve. Lots of comments talk about variants of this issue. Hopefully it’ll get fixed so it’ll be more enjoyable and worthwhile. So close.

Not a great game, pretty fun though

This game is too predictable, I got faster by just taking a bishop or queen to the spot closest to king, or a back rank checkmate. Wish there was more focus on accuracy and learning than moving an extremely slow person down a path as fast as possible. Good idea/concept though, room to build on it for sure. I will continue playing just because of how much I support chess.com, hope there will be more to this game in the future.

Juvenile

It feels like a kids game with the animation and simple mating patterns right off the bat. That isn’t a bad thing but having been advertised as a game meant for all its a little disappointing playing the game as an adult. I wish there were more learning value as someone that’s not just starting. Definitely good for someone starting chess though.
