Money well spent
The limitations on moves will force you to see new possibilities on the board. It's true that these mates can be solved with more moves, but learning to creatively work yourself out of dire situations is priceless
Great fun! The mate in 4+ really helped improve my game.

Great
I'm a pretty good player but on a leisure level. I begin to find these challenging at mate in 4 and then of course progressively harder. I'm sure some are wrong Etc like pointed out by a seemingly very thorough reviewer but for me it all makes sense. The layout is the same as the "Champions" app also recommended. I also recommend Puzzle Hero.
Have fun
Great practice in thinking ahead
I especially like the problems where you have to find the checkmate in three or four moves ahead. It gives me much needed practice in visualizing what the board will look like depending on which decision I make
Lots of fun
This app is a lot of fun!
A must have app for everyone who is interested in Chess
It's fun, it's knowledge, it's learning,
Great value!
The amount of value in this app is quite high. I do like the verisimilitude of the positions.
Great little program, but...
I found all the problems entertaining. I found a number of alternate and quicker solutions to a few problems, but two of the problems had no solutions or were presented improperly (for instance black to play, instead of white to play)
Good practice
These nice little challenges help me improve my game. A good mixture for me of easy and hard chess puzzles.
Most realistic chess puzzle app
These are not “artificial puzzles “ but taken from real games. You can buy a book of puzzles from real games, but this beats them all!
Fantastic but delay or lack of delay gives away correct move
Wonderful but if you make the correct move, opponents piece moves right away. If you make an incorrect move, there’s a decent delay indicating you made the wrong move. A good solution would just be random delays added to correct moves.

2stars only because it’s free!
Abrupt quits are frequent, and the solver can’t produce hints or solutions for any of the mate-in-7 problems. So it’s good for all the problems up to mate in 6, which is good enough practice. It’s entirely possible that more powerful iPhones will support this app completely, so if you have an 8 or higher give it a try!
