Solid

It’s a good stable game. What impresses me the most is that there isn’t even a hint of micro transactions. No ads no money grabs, I literally looked everywhere and can’t find a way to pay for anything. Every day for no other reason than their appreciation of me playing their game I’m rewarded plenty of in game currency to steadily build my deck and level my cards.

I rarely ever write a review for the games I play because all the feedback they need comes from my wallet. Here, I have to show gratitude for building a decent game that is fun, free and fair. That said I truly hope this free game stays free however I would suggest allowing donations, I would surely donate and would not even want in game rewards other than maybe skins to keep a fair balance in this game.

Thank you for something I have not seen before. Bravo!

Hi Cdavearies, thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful feedback. We’re really glad you’re enjoying the fair progression and overall experience. Your support and appreciation mean a lot to the team. We’ll continue working to keep the game fun and enjoyable. – Chess Rumble Support Team

Love the Game

I am really enjoying the game thus far. I’m level 20 and I am enjoying the special events. Make more? Also, getting shards of cards but you can’t play the card is strange. Maybe make that part more clear. I’ve bought shards in the marketplace but that doesn’t give you the card itself? Overall great game.

Hi vincentchav, thank you for the great feedback! We’re glad you’re enjoying the game and events. We’ll share your suggestion for more events and clearer card shard mechanics with the team. Your input helps us improve the experience. Thanks for your support! – Chess Rumble Support Team

Exploit exposure

I love the game but at the time of me writing this there is an exploit with the minion “shadow ghost” your enemy can keep moving the troop around the board without the timer running out. They will do this until you fatigue and choose to surrender causing you to lose your rank and the battle. Please look into this and remove it. Other than that, I enjoy the game and look forward to seeing how you expand it in the future.

I like it

This games fun, a lot of strategies and building decks involved, if you like clash this is your kind of game. I’m addicted.

The game runs perfectly and is very fun

This is literally the best mobile strategy game i have downloaded so far. Loads of characters, spells and minions to set up your deck. Multiplayer match up is balanced and the game mechanics make it a awesome new addition to the genre. I love chess and this game basically brings chess to life in the way you want it to and makes it so much fun.
