Great game ruined by cheats
As others have noted.
The game itself is great but the cheat bots are gradually ruining it. They’re easy to spot as well.

Game keep crashing
So many games the opponent runs the clock out cause they are down . It freezes and I don’t get the win it’s so frustrating.
Not a great app for advancing knowledge of chess
Gamification is useless
Weak
Unfortunately, one of the biggest weaknesses of this game is the quality of the alternative moves it suggests after you make a “weak” move. The recommended move often seems to focus only on the immediate position rather than analysing several moves ahead, as a proper chess engine would, taking into account the overall placement of both your pieces and your opponent’s.
For example, I had a square under attack by an opposing rook, and the game suggested responding with my rook. However, from a longer-term positional perspective, defending with my knight was a much stronger option and better preserved my overall setup.
For me, this is one of the most significant shortcomings of the app. Aside from that, it is a very enjoyable tool for practising, exploring, and improving your chess.
Finally, I wonder if this weakness is based on the tokens that you have to use for the proposed move as it uses a token to show it to you? and you must spent little diamonds to “buy” those tokens? Just food for thought…
Update : I might have been too harsh! The app is ok but the weak proposed moves need to be fixed if possible! Cheers!

Something fishy
So I’ve been playing this game for a long time and I know I’m not crazy cause it only does it when somebody’s losing but my opponent will move a piece and then I attack that piece or just move another piece and then after that their piece that they had moved before me, would move again in the same play or whatever play to benefit them like it’s skip my move only to attack me someone’s figured out how to hack this game because it happens with several people only when they’re losing

The BEST chess game out there
I’ve been playing for years since this was released on Apple Arcade. I’ve tried other chess apps and none of them come close to how exceptional this one is. Something about the check effects, the sound effects and the clean design makes for a really satisfying game.
Not for beginners
This app has what it calls chest lessons but they are very poorly done. They don’t explain things & don’t give begiiners a chance to play in a way to learn in the matches. This is really for expert players.
Nice ➡️ better
It’s amazing for normal chess and I love it but with the name chess universe+ I would think it would have all the different versions of chess like fairy chess and I think it be cool to be able to create your own chess pieces within the app so yeah great for normal chess but it’d be better if it actually included the universe+ in the game and not just in the title.

I ❤️ Chess

Sucks
Cool but also frustrating limits
I’ve enjoyed playing this chess game because of all the avatars and chess sets you can unlock, mix and match, create your own look etc. However I’ve now bumped into some sort of limit and can no longer unlock the remaining few characters such as the Warlock for example.
The computer play is pretty poor, it should have better calibrated levels as you progress, as on chess.com, the easy levels are really stupid and it would be better if the gameplay adjusted to match around the player’s ELO, ie: -200, 0, +200.
The post-game analysis options are also limited, in particular missing the “show me” feature in chess.com which explains why a move may be good (or poor).
Overall, whilst this is a more fun & appealing game, it has limitations that the developers could easily improve on.

Irreführende falsche Angaben
Was auch immer ihr unter „sehr leicht“ versteht… auf jeden fall ist es gelogen. Bei „sehr leicht“ kommen zu oft fast unlösbare Aufgaben. Eine Frechheit ist das!
Response from developer
Liebe Spielerin, lieber Spieler, es tut uns leid, dass du Probleme mit der App hattest. Bitte melde diese detailliert an support@chess-universe.net, damit unser Team sie untersuchen kann. Aktualisiere bitte auch die App. Beste Grüße, Miley von Chess Universe ♟️
Horrible app for chess
Just play chess.com. No point in using this inferior version of online chess. Terrible chess bots. No anti cheat. Just a bad app
It lost all my data
I have played this game for many many hours. Collected almost all the boards and sets. Beat many of the mini game challenges. Then the game forgot all my progress. I love chess but I don’t want to redo all the lessons games. Very disappointing.
Doesn’t belong in Apple Arcade
This app operates like a free/pay to play app. Wait 24hrs until next match. Even within the Apple Arcade. The settings are so limited, the chess pieces move so fast that you miss where your opponent moved.
Learning chess
It is the best way to get kids interested in playing board games, versing someone and learning you can not win all the time.
