I was frustrated by how 'easy' wasn't easy for me . . . though apparently too easy for other users. Ah, well . . . anyway, I also felt that the hints weren't helping much . . . so I vowed to give it one more try. You must have been reading my mail, as they used to say. I asked for a hint at just the right time, got mate, and was able to see how it was done . . . what I'd have missed, probably, on my own. So, okay . . . on we go.

Great start but needs improvement

This is a good basic version of a chess app. However there are a few things that could be improved upon. I would definitely give it a 5 if some of these things were fixed. - make it so we can see the “g” on the g column. The lower part of the g is cut off and it looks like an a. - I play using the letters and numbers of the board so having those situated in a way where they would be visible even with pieces on the square would be immensely helpful. (Maybe put them outside of the board?) -I purchased this version of the game for my Mac for $2.99 expecting that I could switch from my iPhone and Mac and keep playing the same game but that is not the case. (Unless I have missed some cross compatibility sign-in somewhere). It’s not a big deal but it would be a nice feature for a paid app on Mac. Overall it’s a good basic chess app if you just want to play by yourself or with a friend.

Just what I was looking for

Rediscovering the chess of my youth when i can get away with it on my computer. Good stuff.

Poor computer competition

The computer vs one player is very weak regardless of setting. This app is okay for two player games but is of no value vs computer. It gives up the queen readily.

Doesn't know how to play chess.

Other than that, it's fine! Game does not have chess rules implemented correctly. One-player mode calls stalemate whenever computer king cannot move, even when other legal moves exist. Computer castles even after king has moved from original position - illegal. This is apart from the absolutely ridiculous gameplay in which the computer simply throws pieces out to be taken. Can't get Internet mode (what I bought it for) to work. IOS version doesn't allow searching for user IDs. OS X version (yes, I bought both like an idiot) allows searching, but it doesn't work - can't find my friend who is logged in and sitting across the room watching.

AAA

Fun Chess app. Easy setup,,,fast play,,progressive levels of difficulty. Has all a casual player could want. Inexpensive for hours of entertainment.

Am I doing something wrong or what?

I just played my first game of chess on this app and played against a computer just to try it out. I tried to castle my king and rook and it would not let me. If there is no fix for this than this is a terrible app and should be fixed immediately.
