User reviews

Are all games random?

Hello, can a game be set up with a known player? I would like to play with my friend at a distance but the app doesnโ€™t seem to allow that??

Don't waste your money

Game couldn't establish a network connection...either by wifi or cellular.
Guessing it requires a server which isn't running anymore.

Hopeless and harmful

Kept telling me I wasn't connected to the internet. Never gave me the identifier code it was supposed to on first use. Caused ipad to crash. Don't touch it.

Will not connect

Just like the other comment, my grandson and I both put in the codes, hit play, and it says waiting to connect and nothing happens. Help!

Can't get it to work

I'm trying to play chess with my grandson 450 miles away and we can't get this app to work. Has anybody out there succeeded with Remot Chess?
