Ratings and reviews

Great, but inbetween each and every move are many annoying animations and "enemy turn" popups. I dont need all this info. A simple game fits well with simplicity.

So far, the only two issues I have with the game is... while playing "rivals enter the room" in the middle of the game.... but then they won't play... and the worst part, it stops the current game 🙄😒😣🤦🏽‍♀️ (ugh) overall I enjoy the game....I'm glad to know some else enjoys a good game of Viking Chess(lol) PS my other gripe... the adds, gee wiz, I hate the adds but such is life🤷🏽‍♀️

I'm liking it just fine, though being able to take back a move would be nice seeing as on more than one occasion the piece has not gone to where I tried to click. (I only play against the AI.)
