Chess
At first it was lovely but after a few months it started glitching and not moving pieces
Need to fix
Every time I try to play this game it’s lags and glitches and I have to close the game to play whenever I move a chess piece it lags and it is pretty much unplayable.
trash

Difficulty ratings are confusing
It’s an okay chess app.
But no analysis offered.
And I wish it would give an estimate of elo ratings for the difficulty settings. I would estimate the “Novice” difficulty ranking to be close to 1600-1700 elo. Which is not novice…
I also wish we had an idea how many moves ahead the engine is thinking.
I’m afraid the confusion with “novice,” not truly being a novice play type will turn off new chess enthusiasts.
I will give credit where credits is due: this is one of the most difficult chess engines I have played.

Undo doesn't exist in real chess
Why include the "undo"? Che has always been used as a life learning experience. There are no undo in real life, and this game also doesn't have it according to the real rules of this game. I feel like you turned the game into an unrealistic expectation. Imagine when kids begin playing with other kids or adults who know that chess has no undo. More mass shootings.

Very challenging game and very great
Needs REDO button
Once I load a saved game I can’t analyze it well because there’s only an UNDO button and not a REDO button
Nice online chess game
Good for playing online. Cant beat computer all the time. Buttons are in Chinese for some reason, the rest is in English.
Fixes: Nice if you could chat players you want to play with before actually starting game. Would also be nice if you could save being as guest, for the bought version. I seem to win more games against online players as guest because im more relaxed.

Recurring Illegal Move
Several times now the computer has made an illegal capture with the same glitch. The computer sometimes takes your pawn by moving its own pawn diagonally to an unoccupied square behind your pawn. The only way to avoid this in your game is to move a different piece. Another review said that this happened to him only once, but this has happened to me multiple times in 25 games.

I stink at this
The computer is so good. I mean, like, crazy good. I can’t win. They need a baby level for those like me who are good but not mastery level. Good luck to everyone who wants to lose their self esteem when it comes to chess
Please update
Very nice, please update.
I Forgot
Since watching Queens Gambit, my chess bug once lost has been found. However on this app, when set to the expert level, if it senses it might get beat, it cheats with illegal moves. I’m sure the developer grew tired but if the app doesn’t play straight up chess, it’s a waste of time. Really disappointed because I forgot this app did this and why I deleted a long time ago. Let me know when you fix the bugs.

Pawn poor
Most of the gameplay is very good. However, in the end game stages when pawns are in play, taking of pawns is not correct. Pawns are taken by the game when on adjacent squares rather than on diagonals.
Illegal move
Out of the blue the computer moved a pawn forward one square on the diagonal, it was just a move not a capture, I hit the reply and the piece continued to make the move repeatedly, not repeated in subsequent games, FYI
Wow...
So I’m a pretty serious chess player, and I’m really really into computer chess/engine chess... when I get bored I’ll download a bunch of random chess apps and play them against each other at their highest difficulty, in little engine/chess bot tourneys.. I always play the winner against Stockfish (11, not 12 which I know is the newest and best, but v.11 is still a world renowned chess software amongst players and the computer chess world, elite engine nonetheless, certainly a 3000+ Elo I would assume...) This app one it’s little tourney and in the 3 games vs Stockfish that it played (1 white, 1 black, then one random) it one its first game with the white pieces in an AMAZING! Passed pawn pushing end game. It drew the 2nd game with black, and it drew the 3rd game with white... incredible. I’ve seen some of these apps perform very well vs Stockfish and even force some draws here and there with the white pieces, but I’ve NEVER!!! Seen an app beat that engine, and I’ve NEVER!!! Seen results other than a loss with the black pieces... Amazing stuff...

GAME BREAKING BUG
I thought this app was 5* until I realised there is a massive bug in the game. If you move a pawn from H2 to H4, and an opponent pawn is on G4, the opponent’s pawn then moves to H5 and takes your pawn on H4! An illegal move and it there’s clearly something wrong in the code.
This may seem trivial but its game breaking and until the devs fix this, I cannot even begin to contemplate giving the 5* this game otherwise deserves.
