Ratings and reviews

I've had this chess game for years. I play it everytime I have down time. I currently play at level 10. All the improvements are great, however they have caused glitches in the program. I own the note 10+ & can't complete a game now. You can hear the pieces moving but the game continually freezes. It flickers and freezes continually. Very aggravating, if I could return to the previous version I would in a heart beat....

Used to work. Had this on every android device since 2015. Now it crashes every time a press play. Crashes 4 or 5 times before it will start. Crashes during play sometimes too. Doesn't crash ever if data or wifi is off. I think it has something to do with the ads. Also, many ads have a 30 second timer that takes 45 seconds to complete. I will never buy and product advertised on this app. Update 7/29/21. Ads cause the screen to go black and freeze the phone. Completely unusable.

A good version of chess, coming from a novice. The ads are a real problem. Full screen ads are a real pain. These ads are 30 secs long and have sound when you have sound turned off in the app. In response to the developer, that's what I am saying, some adds are not allowing you to hit close until 30 secs or more has passed. Typical ads are 5 secs, not all.
