Chess Premium App Reviews

As exquisite a chess game as you will ever play. 5 stars. No notes.

This is the best game in the world. It keeps me sharp mentally and the level that I play on is not easily winnable.

I like that you can undo moves. It's a great app for practicing and seeing the possible outcomes of different moves.

Without ads is way better

I am still a novice, playing at the midpoint setting. Often I will replay a different move to learn different strategies and tactics. My only issue is checkmate is final, because I am learning I would like to have that feature.

Chess is a fun way to waste your time.

I play this game for hours each day. It keeps my mind sharp.

Great way to learn

Been playing this chess game for 6 years … I have learned is nice to win but joyful to have a game you can play any time & every where . NO ADDS 🩷

I won for first time in over 10 years!

I love this game!😁🙏🥳

If you’re trying to learn chess then it’s pretty good with the undo. The levels are pretty good.

Paid version is the bees knees, just chest no ads off-line play. What can get any better

If only it could save a pgn

This game is perfect

I encountered a position where, after Queenside castling as white, the computer on the highest difficulty setting made no move as Black and yet somehow put me in check. The same thing happened 3 times in a row after using the undo feature. Up to that point though the app is fine, hence 3 stars.

How do I change a king with a rocks. Can someone show me?

Keep up with different tactics with the free version 💪

So far I’ve only been able to stalemate on the difficult level. This is a great training aid for teaching you to hold algorithms. Premium is worth it to remove ads bc geo tracked ads were sending the wrong kind of content to me.

Great fun for all ages

I play this game all the time and occasionally, the game will cheat. If I move my pawn parallel to an opponent’s pawn, it will capture the pawn. Other than that, I enjoy casually playing and learning the game.

I paid for the non ad version still get ads

It’s easy to play, thanks to the difficulty settings. I enjoy playing it.

This app is really fun. Tough computer at high difficulty settings, yet beatable on the easy settings. Good music to play to also. Incorporates special rules like castling and promotion.

App is fundamental good, but there have been instants where you are checkmated, but the app only says check and lets you try to move even though there are no viable spots for you to move to. Wish that could be updated, but other than that it is a great app that I enjoy.

Can send video of it. Normally it’s fine but it’s untelling how many times this has happened and me not notice. I put the king in check with a pawn and it moves in to check in the path of a rook.

The chess is my game favorite of U.S.A

I don’t like that I have to turn down my phones volume to turn down the ‘on hold’ music (that just loops and loops). I like to listen to podcasts on my phone or audio in general while playing chess. This app will not allow you to do that. FYI buyer beware.

I wish the game would fit the display on the iPad Air 5th gen

I really enjoy this app!

My kids learn so much. is like a learning game!?! and it’s very good quality😜

I’ve noticed that the AI like to treat the knight as if it can be skipped over. That can be infuriating, especially when you’re “in check” from behind a piece blocking the checking piece. Other than that, i’d say the AI could use a little but of a nerf. I could go toe-to-toe with Level 7 difficulty in Microsoft Chess, however, i have yet to beat (what i assume to be) level 5 on this app. Other than that, this greatly supplements my chess addiction, and that’s enough to rate it 4 stars

It’s pretty fun and a great way to workout your brain

Winner chicken dinner

All I play is Chess. This app is simple, just chess. Perfect. Worth the 2 dollars to remove ads.

Awesome game, best one I played

Highly recommend. Great app.

Very great Love it! Cj

No checkmate notice, the game just stops

Good means of improving one’s game!

Not sure why but the free version is faster. Paid version has a longer lag between the computer’s moves. Also noticed a glitch when a pawn is moved adjacent to the opponent. It’s automatically captured. Other than that, I do like the app.

There was once a option for the software to suggest a move. That was an extremely helpful option.

Just bought this and two days in I’m playing the bot and it says I’m in check when clearly according to the positions on the board, I’m not. I had to undo two moves to get the check to go away (neither positions were checks) and computer refused to play the same move even though I repeated my moves multiple times. Seems like check is based on what the AI thinks is a check and not what is actually on the board. Game logic is seriously flawed and I have no faith in the engine. Avoid.

It’s one of a few on there that says no help at all. I can’t believe I bought it. Should I get a refund

I just had an opposing pawn move vertically 5 squats to take my room. Same thing happened when I backtracked. New rules?
