Deep Green Chess App Reviews

I’m happy to see that this app has been updated! It hasn’t left my phone since I downloaded it a decade ago.

The main reason I bought this game was the gorgeous design, and the new design just look like a generic life-less chess app :( The old icon is also 10x nicer than the new one… Is there any chance of making the old green-classic them & app icon be an option? I am currently holding back from updating the app 😬😬 Thank you!!

This chess app is top notch—always has been. No other app is as enjoyable to use. BUT! This new update is a major change to the wooden board and pieces. It is no longer the green felt and classic wood. Look at the new version previews and make sure you’re ok with that before you update. The classic wood board is not an option. I wish it was. Also, the Steampunk engine’s gears no longer make noise. I miss both that and the old wood board.

Simple. Gorgeous. Perfect.

Although it has been many years coming for this update it is like a beta version that needs more work.

This chess app is the best I've found. I'm not a strong player - so the lower levels allow me to have some less strenuous matches. I can also ratchet up the brains for a real challenge. I also appreciate the developer continually not charging again for the added functionality of new screen sizes. I enjoy using this chess program and am very happy the money I spent went to such a great developer. (Rotating the iPad is one of the best easter eggs I've seen in iOS for some time - so beautiful

This app is a joy to use. It does have some glitches, however, and is in desperate need of an update. I noticed that the website listed here for the developer is gone. But I found that the Twitter account @deepgreenchess is still active; which gives me hope that an update may be in the works. I wish the developer well—this app is a jewel among the ruble.

By Please update it for iPhone X, keeps crashing.

This used to be such a great chess app with a simple, clear interface. The new facelift has made it unusable. Nothing works the same and the new visuals are a distraction at best. Oh well, I guess I have to find another chess app now.

The updated version lost so much character and life compared to the old version, which was beautiful and had wonderful sound design. Why oh why did you replace my favorite chess app with this lifeless white void? Maybe re-release the old version as classic or something? Please!!???
