User reviews

Buggy

Several times, after making a move, clock will still tick down and you lose because you “ran out of time” even though when you move, there was still time on the clock.

Fantastic app

This app is full of all sorts of useful and entertaining functions with charming visual effects. It is also very useful for all those avid chess players who wish to improve their opening and middlegame skills. It also made my day when I saw the picture of IM Sara Khadem the legend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nothing great or new

Nothing new about ratings( as ads suggest) nothing great in terms of play options.
Similar to puzzles in other chess apps. Ads are annoying
