I’m also a sucker for nostalgic 8-bit like graphics and MMO games. ### 5/5 — Still Testing *2026-06-15* Loving the idea so far! ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2026-06-14* Tons of fun if you like chess and community ### 5/5 — Great new chess game! *2026-06-12* It’s hard to create a new experience in chess, but this game does it. I hope to see the game grow and the community thrive. ### 5/5 — brilliant concept! *2026-04-28* I downloaded this game not too long ago, and it’s been one of the most interactive chess experiences I’ve had online. It has the vibe of a virtual chess club, yet it’s super casual. I would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to make some friends to play chess with online! ### 5/5 — LOVE THIS GAME *2026-04-27* Community is awesome, I recommend joining the discord. The owner is actively listening as well. 10/10 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Impossible de jouer *2026-07-29* Le jeu ne permet même pas de s’inscrire pour jouer , même après avoir relancé le jeu ou le téléphone. Aujourd’hui des applications permettent le jeu en ligne sans la création de compte . Quelle dommage… ### 1/5 — Careful *2026-07-24* Sunk 200 hours into this game. Got randomly banned by ai with zero explanation. No support no appeal process. ### 1/5 — Good concept. No chance *2026-06-16* The idea is there but is completely useless when 1 player counts are near 0. And finding a match means look around for people who want to play. There no skill base match making. You make your own matches. Have of the playable boards are 1-3 minutes which most people don't want a 3 minute thinking time. Your better off playing chess.com ### 1/5 — Great idea, bad execution *2026-06-15* Kool basic old school 8bit vibe Sit black at table Player joins Game starts I’m white ### 4/5 — Fun Idea *2026-07-03* I’ve been playing here for about a week. It’s great! Lots of good games and players. I even like to sit back and watch higher rated players duke it out in real time. Neat idea. Would love to see a better map layout and the ability to choose items in the shops. ### 4/5 — Much needed Concept *2026-06-15* I always thought about a chess mmo and we finally got one. Has a lot of potential. It’s a little buggy at times when you can’t move your pieces and your time runs out but other than that I have problems. I love that the community is from all over the world. ### 4/5 — Cool idea *2026-06-05* This is a great concept, but because there is socializing it temps people to cheat. “Look at me, I’m so good” I don’t know if there is a report cheating option but that would be great. ### 4/5 — Amazing game, needs some minor fixes *2026-05-23* this is an amazingly creative idea for chess. It’s very interactive and is growing every day. Being able to customize characters and pets makes it fun and interactive. I think this app has the potential to be something big someday!! That being said there are flaws just like all new games have. First the more you play the less trophies you can win, making it harder to earn the only currency in the game, when I first started playing every time I won I made 20+ trophies but now that I’m playing my 60th game I can only make 4+ trophies if I play around same level. Game is a little glitchy, especially the more numbers that are on. But overall an amazing game and I really hope it succeeds ### 5/5 — Seriously fun and from a good indie dev! *2026-07-28* Dan the man is constantly tweaking things, adding new stuff, and getting involved in the community. It’s a fun chess game with an almost RuneScape style side game to it. Very fun and addictive! ### 5/5 — Une vrai pépite ! *2026-07-26* Un jeu fraîchement débarqué qui évolue et s'améliore de jour en jour. Un mélange de genres qui fonctionne à merveille et qui devient vite ultra prenant. Gros point fort : les rencontres et les échanges entre joueurs. Un système de traduction a été intégré, ce qui fluidifie énormément les conversations et permet de jouer avec des personnes du monde entier. - Côté échecs, on retrouve plusieurs cadences (blitz, rapide, etc.), ainsi que différentes variantes. Des tournois sont organisés régulièrement, et plusieurs modes de jeu permettent de gagner de quoi investir dans des skins, des familiers et bien d'autres éléments cosmétiques. Il est également possible de télécharger son PGN ou de lancer une analyse de partie directement depuis le jeu pour revoir ses coups et progresser. - Côté MMO, on part à l'aventure dans un univers accueillant malgré la présence du PvP. Collecte de ressources, montée en niveau, craft d'équipements... Le système de clans permet de s'organiser pour affronter les plus gros boss du jeu. Il y aurait encore énormément à dire 😁 Je vous recommande vivement de découvrir l'univers de ChessMMO.gg. Qui sait, peut-être que l'on s'y croisera un jour ! 😊 ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun like RuneScape *2026-07-23* Keeps growing. Good fun ### 5/5 — Brilliant Concept! *2026-07-23* I love this idea! Turning chess into an MMO is incredibly creative and makes the game feel much more social and fun.

Rupert ### 5/5 — Great Chess *2026-07-07* Really strong players and makes chess a lot more fun ### 5/5 — The best chess MMO *2026-07-04* I’ve been passively playing for the past month, and the developer is constantly making huge content updates and improvements.

It’s just so fun (: ### 5/5 — Great for every level of chess! *2026-06-16* This game makes learning chess fun. I hope this game makes chess grow even more than it already has in the past few years. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
