I won again

The ability to sacrifice the right piece is esential.

Superb App

This is a first-rate chess playing app with many useful chess improvement features and excellent support from the developer.
After using the Pro update for number of years (which I was very satisfied with), I have recently updated to the Ginkgo engine option which has provided an enhanced playing and review experience and as a one-time-charge gives (in my opinion) great value for money.
I can highly recommend it.

Chessconnect?!

Tolle App. Ich würde mir wünschen, wenn es mit der wirklich hervorragenden App „chessconnect“ verbunden werden könnte, damit ich Eure Engine auf meinem echten Holzbrett von Chessnut spielen könnte. Weiter ganz viel Erfolg für Eure tolle Arbeit.

Response from developer

Danke. Wir werden uns das ansehen.

Chess epic

This is an amazingly beautiful chess program that’s a lot of fun to play. I learn so much as I play.

Eine der besten Chessapps

Vorweg: Die Ginkgo Engine ist ein Monster, das man aber glücklicherweise feingraduell in der Spielstärke anpassen kann. Dabei bleibt der Spielstiel stets angenehm. Besonders gefällt mir die Möglichkeit, Spiele zu analysieren. Dazu würde ich mir wünschen,via Zwischenablage Spiele aus anderen Apps zu im- und exportieren.
Das User-Interface ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig und könnte noch etwas Feinschliff vertragen, daher hoffe ich auf weitere Verbesserungen, die bisher auch regelmäßig erschienen.
Vielen Dank an das Entwickler-Team für die tolle Arbeit und weiterhin viel Erfolg!
