Old friends

My friends and I have stayed in touch because of this game. There’s no pressure to move or to even play that day (you’ve got 30 days between moves). I love it.

Fantastic

A cross-platform app that pairs you up with friends or random players with similar skill level, let's you learn between moves/games with a seemingly endless library of adequately challenging chess puzzles, and all that for free - that is simply amazing. Sending big kudos from Seattle to the developer to honor this great contribution to the global chess community!!

Buggy puzzle system and lots of cheaters

First off I wanna say this app is fun to play chess with others when your opponents play fairly. After which it all goes down hill.. there are a lot and I mean a lot of either bots or chess engine cheaters. I have played more then 150 different players all low rated “not my choice the computer auto picks your opponents “who are apparently super grandmasters and are in beatable even though their rating shows otherwise. I am not claiming to be perfect but I have a rating of high 2400’s and have about a 96% move accuracy in which all of my opponents always have 100%. Which is only possible with a chess engine / program. Also the puzzles are highly flawed. I have put the computer into mate so many times and it tells me I am incorrect and would rather me win a piece?? More often then not the puzzles rely on the computer making a blunder after your first move which is completely ludicrous. Please fix your puzzles and add a report button so we can start banning these cheaters..

Puzzles are fubar

Many of the puzzles are just stupid and wrong. Many better moves are available but if you don’t choose their move, you are penalized.

Perfect Chess Game

This is my first review of any iPhone app. This chess game is simple, easy to use and satisfies anyone wanting to play long-term games with friends over time. Its gives up to 30 days to make a move. It’s has ads but they are small and located at the bottom of the app and are hardly noticeable. Great job to the team who developed this app. I will highly recommend to everyone.

Plan Moves and Game Analysis are awesome

I had a chess kick a year or two ago with a popular chess app. And this one is so much better because of two features 1. Plan Moves let’s you play out scenarios so you can see how a given move could play out. (You essentially pause the game and play for both players for a bit and then rewind when you’re ready to try a different move or actually make your move.) I feel like I’ve learned more about chess in my 6 games on this app than 20 on the other because I think through everything so much more clearly with this feature 2. Game Analysis uses an chess engine to analyze every move made in the game and show you how good it was by comparing it to the move that the computer would have made. Very helpful for getting new ideas based on how the computer would have handled something, and also just kind of fun to see a chart of who was in a better position at which points in the game based on which moves Highly recommend
