Youre Right Honnest Nick!

The Game Dosent Reconize Our Movements it Dont Even Work! Im pist That I Cant Put 0 Stars So This Star Dosent Count!

Title image problem

When starting the app, an image of chessboard appears. Many people complains that this is, unlike the actual game, 3D image. I don't mind that one, but I strongly request the developer to replace the image with AUTHENTIC CHESS STARTING POSITION.

-The board should be rotated 90' in order to follow 'light on the right' rule.

-Black queen should directly face the white queen, and same goes to king against king. Given that the board is placed correctly(unlike in this image), white queen MUST stand on a light square, and black queen on a dark square. It's simplified by a phrase "dress matches the shoes"

Any starting positions which don't follow these 2 rules are INVALID, and become a sufficient reason to cancle the entire match. In short, THIS IS NOT CHESS. An image like this gives impression that the developer didn't study chess well. Please correct it ASAP

Horrible

The graphics is too slow and horrible. Features lacking I can't import my own games. AI too easy even with hardest level. A chess game that you can slip.

Hope it gets better

I really want to give this more rating, but due to the fact that it dosen't work i cant. The app loads fine, but it then just gives you the top cornor of the board and stays put. Nothing works, and the keys on the UI are so unresponsive in the end i just gave up. The problem (at a guess) seems to be in the version it's giving people. It looks like there's only the one version and that's the ipad version, despite them saying it's iphone friendly. Unfortunatly it isn;t, it isn't scaling and thus is unplayable.

Now, this is a bug that has apparently been addressed in the last patch, so just waiting for apple to update the app. I'll give more thoughts after that. It also dosen't help of course that the links to the Dev's website are broken. Dosen't instill confidence when the Dev's can't even keep their website up

Update seems to have broken it.

Downloaded this a couple of days ago and it was fine, but went to play it today after a version update and it no longer works. All I see is the top left corner of the board - maybe it thinks my iPhone 3GS has an iPad display?

Doesn't work!

!

Horrible

Truly terrible....HD? Pffffft

Misleading graphics

It appears when you download the application that the game will be three-dimensional but when you select the icon to actually play the chess application, you then realize that it is only 2-D.

2D

It's free but it's false advertisement makes it look 3D but it's 2D which I can't stand!

Cool

Pretty cool game
