## What is Chess Knight Go?

Enjoy playing Chess every night of the week with Chess Knight Go!  Play against the computer with 4 AI levels or 2 players against a friend.

Chess is a board game played between two players. It is played on a chessboard, which is a square-checkered board with 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight grid. At the beginning of the game each player controls sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king, whereby the king is under immediate attack (in "check") and there is no way to remove or defend it from attack on the next move.

Features:
- Both one and two player modes.
- Fun AI with 4 levels (easy, medium, hard and expert).
- Great background music and sounds.
- Universal version supports iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad devices.

We hope you enjoy Chess Knight Go!

### 4/5 — iPhone 13 Pro Max funktioniert nicht ordnungsgemäß

*2025-11-16, version 1.0.16*

Auf iPhone 13 Pro Max funktioniert nicht ordnungsgemäß. Nämlich das Brett wird nicht angezeigt. Auf anderen Geräten iPhone 6 iPad Pro 1gen funktioniert einwandfrei. Ich finde das Spiel gut vor allem wegen den Design ich habe das schon damals 2012 gespielt.

### 1/5 — Poor effort

*2017-09-25, version 1.0.13*

I would never download this chess game. I am decent taught myself and have read the rules. I am not positive but I recall 50 moves. If you go back and forth with a piece twice it is a draw.   The writers did not research and this is worthless. This is a worthless game. I discourage anyone wanting a fair game to not do this one. If the game is all but lost this designer programmed in DRAW. Do not download. He plays to call a draw when his king cannot be captured. It is a waste of time. I laugh at the frequency of the games called a draw.  It is funny at times. Poor programming.  These guys would not know a draw if one were on their forehead. It is totally frustrating. How can a game be called a draw after six moves.  No chance for putting opposing king into check. This is frustrating. Draw draw draw

### 3/5 — Divertido

*2016-05-21, version 1.0.13*

Ágil y divertido

### 3/5 — Not bad for free!

*2016-04-30, version 1.0.13*

Not bad, for free, but it wrongly calculates one repetition as a draw, when it should require three repetitions, with no other moves between the reps.

It does occasionally vary its opening move, where many other free games do not, which is good.

I tried to justify spending the extra buck for the paid version, but neither has ads, neither has a selection of boards, backgrounds or pieces, so beyond just saying thanks to the developer for writing a version of chess that the average Joe can beat on the Medium level, but the Advanced and expert levels will blow most people out of the water unless they get used to hitting the Undo button. 

I like the way you cannot select Undo if you are in a Mate In One situation. Good job.

### 4/5 — It's solid

*2015-01-27, version 1.0.13*

Been playing for a few days, seems to be a solid game of chess. Yet, nothing special really... They don't explain castling your king, I'm still trying to figure that one out... But as free apps go, you really can't go wrong here!

### 4/5 — Must Have

*2014-10-05, version 1.0.13*

If you're a chess player and want a chess app, this one is a must have.  It shows possible moves, alerts to illegal moves and offers skill levels for all.  One con is, it calls a draw too quickly.  Sometimes it looks as though it calls a checkmate a draw (after intense study I see the app is right). I'd like to see an option for quick, random training option. One which offers a series of board scenarios where the player must identify the correct move.  Other than these comments and suggestion it really is a great app!

### 4/5 — Buena aplicacion

*2013-10-21, version 1.0.13*

Se las recomienda va super

### 3/5 — Not great

*2013-09-23*

Whenever I have the computer in checkmate it counts it as a draw

### 4/5 — Great app

*2013-08-22, version 1.0.13*

Great app

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2013-07-30, version 1.0.13*

Absolutely horrible. I'm not bad at chess, but I win 50% of the time on easy. It doesn't tell why moves are illegal, making you have to search why. Can't change your color, yet you can choose who goes first...
