Great for improving my ability to see blunders
Being able to back up and try other variations is a great feature. Best of all, a truly free app!
Just chess
Just plays chess, can be very hard to beat on higher levels, no gimmicks, just chess. For anyone who played Chessmaster running the king engine, it has that kind of style, quite human at times, if it blunders and you miss it the engine will come back stronger. I do like the fact the engine will resign (you can refuse) or offer a draw, makes it feel much more natural. A note to the dev, the buttons are there to save a game as pgn file but can’t seem to locate the file in the files app on iPad, any ideas?

Response from developer
Thanks a lot for the thoughtful review. I just found and fixed saving a game doesn't work sometimes. 1.1 will address the issue in a day or two. chessonly.pgn is expected to be located at "On My iPad/Chess Only" in Files App.
Almost perfect!
That's the app I’ve been looking for. Thanks for putting time and effort into it 🙌 The only thing missing is an option to configure the time when creating a new game (including games with no time).
Response from developer
Thanks a lot for the feedback. Just letting you know 1.0 is now released, which has “blitz” speed, meaning “as quick as possible”. For player’s time, it’s there for reference purpose only, no penalty by time spent.
Garbage chess
Placed opponent in check mate multiple times and app decides to say stalemate. Stupid computer can’t win and doesn’t want to give any points so it gives stalemate. Very disappointing app. In two moves the computer says stalemate.
Response from developer
Thanks for the feedback. Stalemate is one of the most interesting (or frustrating :) part of the chess. Theorists say it’s there for the balance of the game by reducing the innate disadvantage of black. Wish you don’t meet the stalemate any longer.
The only app to have for chess
Real good, Just chess
