Beginner or advanced, become a chess master, without ever being disturbed by ads. Do you want to master the most prestigious, the classiest game ever, while having fun? It's EASY! For starters, there are no ads to distract you. There's no account to create, and you don't even need to be connected to the Internet. So, how does it work? If you are a beginner, let yourself be guided by the introductory lessons included. The lessons are SHORT and EASY. Right from the start, you begin playing by moving pieces, and you learn the rules of the game while having fun. The first 40 lessons are free. Once you know the rules, you start playing real games! The coach shows you the moves a Grandmaster would pick. Not just one move, but THE 4 BEST MOVES. Sounds too simple? But think about it... How did you learn to speak as a child? Did you take grammar and spelling lessons? Of course not. You listened to the adults talk and then you went for it! Because that's how you learn! This app allows you to do just that, AND IT WORKS! From the very first games, you start learning effortlessly. You immediately enjoy playing, and after a while you notice that the right moves come to mind naturally, as if they were obvious. Gradually, you deactivate the suggestions and play by yourself. At the end of each game, the coach shows you the good and bad moves you've made. You can better understand what happened, and you can even try out other moves to improve.

Corn 3000
Read full descriptionHide full description
Being a faithful record of one farmer's years upon the Corn Belt. A telegram arrives: your grandfather's quarter-section passes to you — the team, the barn, the herd, and the mortgage with it. Pick your year (1930 to the present), pick your state, and farm it for thirty seasons. Corn 3000 is a turn-based farming life told as a farmer's almanac, built on real USDA and NOAA data and a working field-by-field soil model — no invented numbers. Every figure in it is the true one: USDA yields and prices, NOAA weather, the actual farm bills — the AAA corn-hog contract, the CCC loan floor, deficiency payments, ARC and PLC. Sign with the crop insurance agent at the kitchen table. Sell off the combine or bin it and carry to March. Sow rye after harvest, haul manure while the ground's froze, and watch your soil's organic matter answer for every choice — the ground remembers, field by field. At year's end the books come out: a ruled ledger that accounts for every bushel — what the weather took, what the rotation paid, what your own hands moved. Clear the note on the farm and the land is yours, free and clear. Run it into the dirt and the auctioneer calls. • Eight Corn Belt states, four crops, ninety-five years of real history • A field-by-field soil model — organic matter, tilth, nitrogen — that builds or breaks under your practice, drawn from USDA and land-grant agronomy • The farm crisis, the Dust Bowl, the ethanol boom — survive them all • Decision cards in a hand-set letterpress register; no timers, no energy bars • Entirely on your device: no ads, no accounts, no tracking, nothing sold • A career ends with a reckoning: the money you made and the ground you leave · A stalk pale in June · a bin light in October ·

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Corn 3000 at none against Chess without ads's 7. Corn 3000 also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). Chess without ads's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
