## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 4/5 — Pretty decent

*2024-10-10, version 2.5*

Lots of puzzles, mostly easy so far. Hopefully they’ll get harder. Graphics are a bit blurry, they could do with improving. Some music would be nice. Room for improvement, but a decent chess app.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2021-02-24, version 2.5*

I’d like to give it more stars but there is a few too many ads. I don’t need to see an add after every single puzzle. I’m a quick solver and that is too much. Perhaps the developers should also include a timer delay between ads.

### 4/5 — Tons of puzzles

*2020-03-01*

But most of the puzzles are mate in 1, and super easy
Was kind of hoping for more puzzles as well as more of the more difficult ones
Mate in 1 has the most
Mate in 2 has half that
And mate in 3 has half of even that 
Definitely crossing my fingers for an update adding some mate in 4/5 as well as expanding on the current list

In any case, I haven’t played in years and this feels like a decent way to sharpen up

### 4/5 — Chess

*2019-05-05, version 2.5*

Great app

### 5/5 — Great Chess Game & Awesome Puzzles!

*2023-11-17*

I have been enjoying this app for quite some time now.

The puzzles as they offer a range of difficulty (mate in 1 / mate in 2 / mate in 3).

There is a similar setup for playing a chess game against the AI (3 different levels) but even at the hardest level an average player can score a victory.

Very well done overall!

### 5/5 — Best Chess Program Ever

*2021-09-16, version 2.5*

If you are looking for a fair and fun chess program, look no further as this game has it all.
At medium difficulty, you feel like you are playing against another person as you can make a mistake & still end up winning the game.
The puzzles are phenomenal & really make you think!
Job well done :)

### 5/5 — Great chess puzzle game

*2021-02-20*

Ok so I play a lot of chess and was at first skeptical but honestly this app is excellent.  Sort of like a workout for your "chess brain".  Well-thought out puzzles that are tough but doable. If you love chess or are still just learning this is a great app.
