Pocket Chess App Reviews

Actually, a very fun app to learn about chess! I just wish that I could play it with my iPad propped up on its side, instead of having to hold it up.

It’s been a while since I’ve played chess and this is perfect to brush up on my skills.

hoping for more puzzles

Would greatly appreciate a lil in game music. Something not too distracting but entertaining. Like maybe instrumentals or classical stuff

This is my GO TO game online. Finished 1010 but need to go back and make a clean sweep… won’t be easy. Would love to have middle game challenges with the whole board! Love this game!

Excelente para desarrollar tu mente

Love playing it gets me thinking.

this is a fine tame

This is a good app but there are only mate puzzles as opposed to tactics. Puzzles that involve winning material advantages or space advantages would be really interesting.

The meenibg of perfect

I initially downloaded this because I thought that it would help teach me specific moves to make in a match and I’m sure that it does help develop your endgame by teaching you to be innovative, but I found it much more fun and rewarding than it being a helpful teaching app. Overall 5⭐️ and it still probably helps with developing your skill set in an actual game.

Its good you don’t have to pay for Chess premium

I was having the most scrumptious chocolate milk whilst playing this game 5/5.

It’s pretty cool but the coins are useless if you aren’t a hint user

This app is great if you want to learn chess and gain the patience of looking at the whole picture of a situation. I’d highly recommend it and don’t cheat using the hints, you can do it!

I love chess and how it makes me think outside the box. But I am finding that I am looking for the exit from the ads in this app. Too many for the amount of time you spend on the puzzles.

Súper divertida manera de aprender a finalizar una partida, pasar el rato mientras esperas en el aeropuerto o solo relajarte antes de dormir. Me encanta

The amount and length of ads you experience after leaving a review are staggering. Gameplay is fun otherwise

Once you get past the east stuff, the problems get more interesting.

The best chess game on the market

Im trying to get better

Definitely enjoying the added reps to my endgame. With a few thousand chess matches on LiChess.com this is great to help me walk my opponent into check mate 🧮 👌

Great for learning chess moves especially for beginners like myself. Wish the queen and rook had a more distinguished look to them.

I don't mind ads in a free app, but I truly hate ads that are noisy, and I especially hate ads that can't be promptly muted. Just FYI to the developers if you're offered a choice of what kind of ads you can show with your app. Otherwise the chess problems themselves are good, and are more challenging as I go through the levels.

Love it. Helps narrow down the board to practice endgame. Super fun

the game is good for the only solution to the posited problem. gains an understanding of pieces and board via attacks and defense. good for long range planning and possible end game situations

I thought i was on the tutorial for 10 puzzles straight. Nope, that’s the actual game! Super simple and yet incredibly challenging. This game is amazing for ALL skill levels

starts off way easy but eventually becomes enjoyably challenging. takes time to read h the difficulty that suits each player but certainly supplies the challenges promised in the description👍👏👌

This game offers you own way to kill time. It gives you many puzzles that gradually improve your ability to notice intelligent moves and improve at playing chess. It’s minimalistic and the ads are out of the way to offer a relaxing experience.

Makes you think, and rethink you possible moves

Is there a way to allow the player to review the winning moves before going to the next puzzle?

So far so good. After playing a few levels I paid a few bucks (price of a cheap sandwich) to remove the ads. I can't understand some entitled people leaving bad ratings because they are not willing to spend a few bucks on a game and expect the developer to work for free.

A great way to practice in little step of time.

This app is amazing because it lets you complete mini chess puzzles in a similar playing style of other level-based puzzle games! You make progress as you solve puzzles, and learn new tactical ideas as the levels get harder. I would recommend this game to anyone; even experienced chess players. Great idea, and great chess app!

Lots of fun chess puzzles. It gradually eases you into more difficult puzzles. Great for anyone who want to improve their game

great game for practice. especially when you got time to kill. brain food 🤠

This game is fun and quick. Great way for me to prepare for playing the actual game.

I’ve played chess for a few years and this app has just over 1000 unique mating puzzles. You can learn patterns with this app and when you’re stumped, use coins you’ve worked to earn. Daily puzzles are unique. Not to mention the events with nearly 50 more unique, usually harder, puzzles. Well designed. Amazing app.

I am trying to learn to calculate positions without seeing the board and this helps a lot! Since it’s a smaller board it is a stepping stone where I can gain some skills that transfer to the big one, while still being doable without experience

Good clever scenarios. Makes a person think. Progresses levels too slow. Ad interruptions too frequent.

…it didn’t hassle me to review after I paid

A set of interesting chess puzzles with a gentle difficulty curve. Great way to practice chess in short sessions.

I’m very new to chess and I have a hard time understanding the difference between checkmate and stalemate. To make this app better, I would like to see explanations or definitions.

The game is great, it just has way too many ads

It is honestly very fun and challenging
