Chess Only

Which chess engine are you playing against? Fun simple and small

This game allows me to learn at a self-directed pace while tracking my elo. The problem is that it takes forever to correct my elo downward when I’m losing, because I can’t concede the match. I wish I could just have two or three buttons: “concede loss”, “declare draw”, and maybe “declare win”

I downloaded it for play on my iPhone. When the game launches the board is stuck in an upper right corner such that the right two columns don’t appear on the screen. I can’t reach the settings button because the buttons at the bottom are also overflowing the right edge of the screen so the last one visible is the hint button. No amount of tinkering would shift the screen to the left. Even deleted and reinstalled. Same result.

I have tried a lot of chess apps this one is one of my favorites.

I like being able to analyze my games and try different variations on difficult positions. This app ALMOST let’s me do that, but there are some features it could really use to help out as a training tool. 1) Allow me to force the board into a specific position. This is great for exploring certain openings. 2) Allow switching sides. 3) Allow saving the board positions.

Needs a resign button. Needs to adjust ratings properly for new players. 1500 players don’t give up material as easily as this AI does. Seems a little underpowered at low levels. I like the simple blunder check coaching though. Keep working on it.

The the Simplicity is genius! My go to Chess Game !

Nice UX. Good concept of matching engine strength to player strength. But I cannot export PGN of games. Huge negative. My workaround is to take screenshots of move list and replay hand in another tools that will export PGN. If I could export games, and could review past games then I’d bump up the number of stars.

To easy

Not the first chess app I’ve tried, but it might be the last. Ad-free!!!!
