User reviews

Beginner problem

I wish they had it a more easier way to see which piece can go where and I wish they added more of a tutorial besides that it’s really fun. It’s a little tough for a beginner, but besides that this is really fun and addictive.

Great game

I played this game, especially the puzzle feature and finished all one thousand puzzles. The only improvement I would ask is to add an icloud feature so that your progress is recorded and is restored whenever you install it on many devices. Also it would be nice to be able to revisit solved puzzles and retry them if we wanted and review the solution we made.

Thank

I’ve always loved to play chess so thank you for making this website so I can always play my game.

Please fix the hints

My little brother is even better than the AI and the hints are the worst advice possible
