Ratings and reviews

Excellent App. Been playing this for over a year. Sometimes I go a couple days without playing, other times I may play up to 10 or 15 puzzles a day. Wish I had this when I was younger and more active in chess and tournaments. Tactics can make a huge difference between being being a Class A player or a strong Expert. Or an Expert and a Master. If you have a good position, learn how to convert it into a quick, decisive win. I like the progress feature, where you watch your rating grow

To preface, i am not great at chess, so i cant speak about the higher difficulty puzzles. This is the best chess puzzle/tactic app i have come across. You get set up with a bunch of great puzzles (300), and theres no ads. To get more puzzles, you dont have to sign up for a subscription or anything, its just 2 bucks and you get like 400 puzzles. Simple, straight forward UI and no-nonsense design in every aspect, no ads (i dont think) and no distractions, just chess. Great app, highly reccomend.

Overall, pretty good. The easy ones are usually quite easy (for me) and the hard ones are usually at least a little challenging, although that is a bit uneven. When the puzzle is said to be a "mate in X moves" I frequently find that it takes fewer moves. And that is accounting for useless piece sacrifices that are only delaying the inevitable. I would learn more if I could try alternative moves by the opponent when I make the "right" move. I wanted to complete this, but I am out of space.
