Just wish there was an option to play in vertical format. ### 4/5 — Great game! *2026-08-26, version 1.36* This game is actually really decent. I like the customization and the 3D graphics. The opponents moves do seem a little repetitive if you move the same pawns every time but it’s not a big deal. The difficulties are fine although Normal does seem a little too hard for some reason. The ads are fine and aren’t spammed, and I love how they don’t show up during the games! One thing I’d like to see is a 2D game option, I know it would ruin the whole point of “3D Chess” but it would still be cool! Great game ♟️ ### 4/5 — 😀 *2026-08-25, version 1.36* I really like the game because there are no ads for me and u can also turn the board 2D from 3D but there are bugs and sometimes it loads so slowly that I get kicked out of the app. ### 3/5 — DohaHueeainkaihm *2026-08-23, version 1.36* 1988/1/14 ### 4/5 — Fast perfekt *2026-08-08* Es funktioniert gut, mir fehlt eine Übersicht der Figuren, die nicht mehr im Spiel sind. Optionale Spieltips wären gut. ### 4/5 — Amazing *2026-08-08, version 1.36* I accidentally pressed 4 stars but it’s actually 5. I highly rate it just not the ads. ### 3/5 — Chess game for kids 2 and up *2026-08-08, version 1.36* i want to protect my queen ### 5/5 — Love the App. Good Job *2026-08-05, version 1.36* Excellent graphics. Feels like the real thing. The many perspectives ads to the experience of being both a player and a observer. To the makers of this App - GOOD JOB ### 5/5 — I WAS dumb with hand eye coordination *2026-08-04, version 1.36* It helped me with my hand eye coordination and now I can study and focus in school ### 2/5 — Not good for learning. *2026-08-02, version 1.36* easy is TOO easy and medium is way too hard ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-08-02, version 1.36* Really impressed by the details of the game all around best Chess game around. ### 4/5 — Fccg *2026-08-02, version 1.36* Unnecessarily harsh on you but it’s true you have the best chance at getting it out and I hope it gets fixed for your future use of ### 5/5 — I like it *2026-08-01, version 1.36* 5 stars ### 3/5 — It’s okay, i guess… *2026-07-31, version 1.36* Not exactly like a high quality app or platform, but it gets the job done. ### 5/5 — Normal Setting *2026-07-30, version 1.36* It is nice having a chess app with multiple difficulty levels ### 5/5 — Best chess game and play world class cup *2026-07-29, version 1.36* Excellence of 16 years ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-08-27, version 1.36* Ads ads ads ads ads ### 1/5 — Spoiled *2026-08-23, version 1.36* Every ad played will not close. Used to be a great game, now useless. Developer claims they ‘will look into it’ but it’s worse than ever. Pathetic, don’t bother installimg ### 1/5 — Impossible to close the app *2026-08-22, version 1.36* Impossible to close the app end of game your stuck in another commercial forever ### 1/5 — Jammed on ads and won’t work *2026-08-16, version 1.36* It is stuck on an add after one game. Now no matter how many times I reopen the app the same add pops up and won’t close no matter what I do so I can’t play another game ### 1/5 — Questionable difficulties *2026-07-29, version 1.36* The difficulty settings feel very uneven. Easy and Normal are extremely easy, but Medium is a huge jump in strength. It would be nice to have a more gradual progression so beginners can improve without feeling overwhelmed. Also don’t get me started with the Chinese ad that’s impossible to exit. ### 1/5 — Bs *2026-07-27, version 1.36* Nothing but commercials.. terrible app ### 1/5 — Chess Review *2026-07-18, version 1.36* The music is annoying.

Garbage. ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-06-21, version 1.36* I always get a draw against computer computer won 273 times against me ### 1/5 — Bugs? *2026-06-14, version 1.36* Robot castles after being in check.
