Ratings and reviews

i love this app, one of my favorite chess apps. the absolute worse thing about it that makes part of the adventure almost unplayable. Is that in certain games they force you to use a certain chess set. And sometimes its a set where the pieces are terrible and you cant even tell which piece is which without looking for a min. Its so frustrating!! just allow the player to play with any chess set in any game they want! please! 🙏

Great game, I'd say 5 stars, but there needs to be an option to switch the characters from 3d to a 2d or static image. There's about a 30% chance that when a character pops in the game crashes on my device. That makes many of the tutorials unplayable and the tutorials gatekeep the rest of the game.

Very buggy - I had to install it on an old phone just to create an account to be able to get in. The lessons themselves were pretty good, with one huge problem: minimal instructions as to WHY you had to move where they wanted you to move. If you didn't read their minds and move the extract piece just right, you had to do it over and over with NO explanation, just trial and error. That's lousy teaching. It would be MUCH better if after 3 failed attempts, they gave the option to explain why.
