User reviews

Half-baked

Others have listed many issues, my biggest complaint is that there aren’t any options as far as level of difficulty—what it is, is all you get.

Deserted

I have been trying for one year to play 960 chess here, but it’s impossible. I am usually the only player online even on the weekends, and I won‘t play against a boring computer program. The sound is annoying, also in the 21st century you need a correspondence option. App deleted.

Not good

Too many bugs... the king can move into check. Pieces that are not taken appear to be taken as a result of a computer glitch. Also the position generator needs to state what number in the position that it is. This needs a ton of work!!!!!!!!!!!
