Ratings and reviews

I really enjoyed this chess experience. I like to play the bots, and I like that they have creative personalities. I love the advice from the 'teacher.' However! I am often told in my game review that I should have moved a different piece to protect a pawn. But, if I had done that, a higher tier piece would be made vulnerable. I'm a novice player, so there's a possibility that there is some strategy I'm not seeing. 🤔

I've been playing this game for years now. The app itself is great, the bots, the puzzles, and the analysis. Overall rate—10/10. I just cooked one of my best matches. I suggest adding a new list of games beside the Game History. It would be great if there were a feature where I can save my best games. So that finding a specific game is easy when i need it like showing my brilliant moves to my pears. And that we can display on our profile like a playlist.

Very fun! I like the lessons, puzzles, coach games. While it's fun, the app is often buggy with pretty noticeable bugs that they take a long time to fix. it took 2 months to fix being stuck in the same lesson. now the daily puzzle checkmarks are missing from the calendar and it's been that way for a while. they often take weeks or months to respond to a support inquiry so who knows when they'll see my report. I'd be pissed if I was paying for the app but since I'm not, I can't really be mad.
