Needs confirmation and resign!
Occasionally I'll blunder because I accidentally barely touched the screen while calculating moves. Very frustrating. Also, the ability to resign is fundamental to chess... It gets the job done but only just.
Great but a little buggy
App is very simplistic which is great. I do notice iMessage crashing, lagging, or the chess board disappearing in chat sometimes but doesn’t effect the actually gameplay.
Great App
This is a great way to play chess with friends and family whilst not being pestered with ‘in app purchases’ . I have come across a bug , in which my Queen changed to a Rook unexpectedly. I would like to report this to the
Production team!

How do you rotate board so black is at bottom?
Complaint made is that when playing black the pieces are upside down the black player has to view the board from the white players perspective how can board be rotated?
Great when it works.
There is a bug that will move your pawn 3 spaces for some reason, it’s happening often on opening moves. When this works it’s great, when it doesn’t you are playing against your opponent and the big, lol!
Loved until
I loved the app until suddenly while playing the app would start making moves for both sides without human interaction by me or my son. Apparent the App was hacked either by a person or autoplay computer app and would continue to make moves and remove pieces on its own. I uninstalled and reinstalled with the same result. We would make a few initial moves, then the app would start making it’s own moves. We checked both phones with security software and could find no breaches. The only recourse was to remove the app permanently rather than allow 3rd party control.
Too bad, it was a good way to interact with my son from a distance. I can only conclude a malicious actor exploited some feature that allowed access.

Easy to use
Works great on iMessage
Queen switched to rook no reason
So far it was good but we had one time where the queen actually switched to a rook for no apparent reason. Queen was sitting in the top right corner. I was trying to get ahold of developer but can’t find their contact info. Please help
Confirm your Move feature
A well designed app, no issues except that it could use a confirm your Move feature!
Take back a move
It would be nice if you could take back a accidental move. Also there seems to be a glitch with the rooks suddenly disappearing from the corners. Other than that I love it. Oh, and a Halloween themed board would be groovy!
Love this app!!
Really enjoying this app with friends! Make more colors available !
Also , for the developer , I’m having some type of glitch while playing, it keeps showing a piece even though it got removed from the board, any ideas what’s going on?

100% satisfaction
This is one of the most perfect games available on the App Store. Great price, plays better than the board game, and top notch graphics. It’s both easy to use and helpful to bring activity and thoughtfulness to those moments when you have nothing to say.
Definitely a must own for anyone looking to bring the original game of thrones into their day to day life.

Doesn’t always work
This game works intermittently, there is no option to send the, better free options, will be requesting refund
Not good
Not good and not recommend.
There is an error which you cannot win against your friends.
I caught Rook with Bishop, but when I moved Bishop the Rook was still alvive and the Rook could move and caught my Queen.

Buggy
This app has been buggy for me. With two people I’m trying to play with, I make a move, but it doesn’t send. It’s very frustrating. Only able to play with one person right now (and it was buggy in the beginning too, but somehow was able to start a game). I like the concept, but the programming just isn’t working right

Not compatible with latest update to iOS
Unfortunately, this app must only work on previous versions of iOS. It certainly doesn’t work on iOS 12.
Buggy after four games
Nice interface, convenient play, but it got pretty buggy after about the fourth game. My friend couldn’t move his pieces, or he could only move mine. Then there was the time his rook reappeared in its original location after I had captured it.
Good app but where did that move confirmation screen go?
It’s a good chess iMessage app but the latest update removed the confirmation screen before sending a move. Really makes it easy to accidentally tap the screen and boom the move is gone. At least give us the option, this isn’t speed test.
Also iPad landscape is broken 🙄

Well-done correspondence chess app!
The app does a great job of doing exactly what it needs to and nothing more. Lots of apps try to be too fancy, have too many burdensome features that clutter the UI, or find some other way to stray from the main goal. This allows you to play a nice game of correspondence-style chess with a move history and a clean representation of the current board. Well worth it.
The only reason I'm not rating 5 stars is because in my experience it doesn't handle multiple devices very well. If you start a game on your phone and move to your iPad, for example, iMessage has brought the game and the move history over with the rest of your messages but trying to make a move will give you a prompt to start a new game. Maybe this is just a bug and it’s supposed to sync.
I'd even be okay if they clearly handled the circumstance and just informed you that you have to continue on the original device. Of course, getting state sync to other devices would be even better!
Also others have mentioned that being able to preview the move before auto-sending would improve the experience — I agree.
