Not good

I downloaded it and I got people I felt like didn’t even know how to play chess so I played the hardest bot on there and I won first try. I am kinda good like on chess.com (I highly recommend chess.com for a chess app) I am rated around 1200 but still if I don’t even feel a little challenged by the best bot its just boring for me. Plus there is an add every five minutes so you are adding adds to a bad chess app.

Adds every time you play in training didn’t teach me anything new

Worst game

Worst chess game I ever played hands down
Just another hub for advertisements disguised as a game

Review

Should allow chat to other players. Actually have Elo count. People with 13000+ games shouldn’t be able to play in novice brackets

Please

I already paid for no ads. When I login I don’t want to do a tutorial every time, click popups or spin the temu wheel. Make the suffering stop. I click like 5 ads before I can play anything

Review

It was great and really fun and yeah it just taught me some stuff about chess and I got great at a checkmated my brother and yeah

Beating bot level 10

It is my first time playing and I beat a bot level 10

Ad fest

It’s just a fn Ad fest with a little bit of game attached to it

Please reduce the ads, we are playing chess, not to watch ads, you can't play chess at all, ads ever

Please reduce the ads, we are playing chess, not to watch ads, you can't play chess at all, ads every second

Good

Chess, good

Subpar app

Worthless app unless you want to waste unnecessary amounts of time navigating through a labyrinth of ads and non-matches just to play a real match.

U

Too much ads

Adds

Promotion adds to much of irritating

Paying for more Ads; Not Navigable

No obvious way to get to a main menu so that I can change what I want to do (play a friend, play a bot, do puzzles). Also, I paid the $5 to be rid of ads only to get everything buried on internal ads (spin the wheel for extra coins, play in this event). Like I just want to get from point a to point b without be slammed for more ways to get more money from me.

ENDLESS ADS

The amount of ads in this game is ridiculous. There’s an option for hints, but you have to watch an ad to get them. However, if you click the ‘X’ for no hints and to play it will play an ad anyway!! And if you don’t want ads, you have to pay. It’s genuinely pathetic. Games are not fun anymore as it’s now all about gaining money from sponsors. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!!

Way too many ads

There are way too many ads for this chess game to be how basic it is

Ads Ads Ads

I downloaded this so that I could play chess… which is the whole premise of this game supposedly. But any button you press, an add comes up. Any time you navigate the menu or click off something… another Ad… hence why the 1 star and uninstall

Advert

The game worked really well. However, I was having to play the advert whiteout survival demo game more than I was getting to play chess. The x to close the advert often never appeared and so I’d have to close the app and then play the advert again.

Emoticons

Leider muss ich dieser App eine negative Bewertung geben. Ich habe den Support bereits per E-Mail kontaktiert, weil die Emoticons in der App nicht funktionieren. Bis heute habe ich jedoch keine Antwort erhalten.
Ich habe wirklich alles ausprobiert - Neuinstallation, Cache löschen, verschiedene Netzwerke - aber das Problem besteht weiterhin. Einige Spieler können die Emoticons verwenden, bei mir erscheinen sie jedoch überhaupt nicht, ohne ersichtlichen Grund.
Solange ich keine Rückmeldung vom Support erhalte und mir nicht erklärt wird, warum diese Funktion bei mir nicht funktioniert, kann ich der App leider keine positive Bewertung geben.
Sobald das Problem behoben ist oder ich eine klare Erklärung bekomme, werde ich meine Bewertung selbstverständlich aktualisieren und wieder positiv bewerten.

Worst App serious security & privacy concerns

This is one of the worst apps I’ve used. It opens ads and redirects to external URLs without any user consent, which is a major security and privacy risk.

An app should never force users into unknown links or third-party pages without permission. This behavior feels unsafe and potentially harmful.

I strongly advise others to avoid this app until these issues are fixed. Developers need to respect user consent and follow basic security standards.
