Ratings and reviews

Had a lot of fun with this game over quite a few years but finally what beat me were the ads which became very annoying, they come up and run a long time before the game starts, they often don't close unless you install an additional game. You have to shut down the app and then restart it, but you may be penalized by having to play black the next game. The company says that they can't control the ads, well that's a shame. There must be a way of having ads without it being completely annoying.

I love this app. But I have a few issues. First of all, I don't know if it's just me and my big fingers but sometimes in multiplayer I'm moving my piece and I make a wrong move because the board is too small. I have a six-inch screen, but it's still a problem! Also, you should make it where as if an opponent takes longer than 10 minutes to make a move, they automatically resign. Its irrating to have people never move because they're losing, and thus the game never concludes. Force a conclusion.

Great app. The one super annoying thing -why no shortcut for rematch with the player, that you just finished playing?! It only makes sense. You have to type the whole name, and sometimes you can't even find the simbols they are using in their names. Yes, it does have an option for previous opponents, but not the one that you just finished playing. and most of the time, that is the one you want to play right away, usually if you lost. 😁
