## Chess Description
tChess Pro is the high-quality, critically acclaimed chess game with the richest features for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. It's perfect for every player:

Beginners:
Not everybody is a chess master! Most chess games are too strong or just make random mistakes at easier levels. tChess Pro has unique algorithms to simulate human opponents.

Experts:
tChess Pro has a top-tier chess engine. (Over 380 ELO points stronger than Caissa Chess.)

Enthusiasts:
tChess Pro's Analysis Mode is like having a chess master in your pocket. You can get the engine's "expert opinion" about any game or position in real-time: which side is winning, and the best sequence of moves. Just like a professional desktop chess package.

More key features:
- Perfect for 1- or 2-player games
- Strong computer opponent
- Play against any ELO rating from 500 to 2500
- Integrated "Learn Chess" e-book app (Apple Staff Favorite!)
- Opening Library feature lets you explore chess opening theory as you play
- PGN Database feature lets you download and view PGN files
- Support for 3-stage time controls with Fischer increments
- Position Editor to enter positions from books, newspapers, etc.
- Save and load games; export them in standard PGN format
- Use the Profile feature to play rated games against the computer and track your progress

tChess Pro is developed by Tom Kerrigan, author of the TSCP and Stobor chess engines.

## Chess Reviews in United States

### ***** "Fun"
This game is a staple of mine, and I just love its numerous features. Great for beginners as well as seasoned players as the games are rated.
-- Agniflower, 2024-12-12

### ***** "Nov 2024 (Still a powerhouse)"
All these years, even with all these dazzling chess apps that now exist.

tChess Pro is one of the original first premium chess games on iOS, it was highly praised during the nascent era of chess games on iOS. 

To this day, it’s still real good, pgns are here, you can even play your puzzle pgns.
-- Lost in Tactics, 2024-11-02

### ***** "best chess app"
i have been using t chess for 11 yrs, i play two games/day! t-chess beats me 90% of the time but i love the game and t chess! thank you t-chess!
-- Bigbirdpeewee, 2024-09-16

### ***** "chess puzzles"
chess puzzles are the only thing that is hindering tchess pro from being 100 percent perfect PLEASE 🙏 I Beg you To Add them please
-- QBBRL5p6, 2024-09-07

### ****- "Needs an update."
Hello. This is one of the better chess apps but it crashes quite often and I see the last update was two years ago. I hope you haven’t abandoned this app.
-- CelticEddieL, 2024-08-28

### ***** "Very nicely done"
I love that you can play rated games and track your progress,
-- rundiomusic, 2024-07-06

### ***** "Great chess app"
tChess Pro is my favorite chess app, I’ve been using it for many years. The interface is well designed and crisp looking. It’s a pleasure to use.
-- Thorir Bjornsson, 2024-04-14

### ****- "tChessPro Review"
tChessPro lacks only one feature that I need.  That is an evaluation bar on the side of the chessboard.  Whether for OTB play with the computer or for analysis.  This is really a must for a 2024 program.
-- liverpoolfab4, 2024-03-15

### ***** "Love 3D"
During the pandemic, TChess fulfilled  part of social need. Like a clever speed chess player in one moment and a thoughtful executor of complex combinations in the next, I was always challenged and it had helped my game against all humans I have since encountered. Love  the 3D especially on my iPad.
-- MuddyAngel, 2024-02-21

### ****- "Good"
Great chess app. For some reason the last updated erased all of my saved games!
-- <TimthEnchanter>, 2024-01-15

### ***** "Excellent"
Computer plays consistent game.  Has really helped me improve my game.
-- 944 racer, 2023-12-21

### ****- "Very useful"
A great app for studying and practicing games played.
-- AaronMIB, 2023-10-13

### ***** "Enjoyable and Challenging"
Plays solid openings and a lot of variations. I enjoy it immensely!
-- Slick Slick, 2023-10-01

### ***** "Chess-tChess pro"
Excellent. Best chess app on the App Store!!!
-- PapaVear777, 2023-09-11

### ***** "Nice games"
Easy to use
-- Revryan660, 2023-08-26

### ***** "Great App!"
Provides several responses to the same strategy and is constantly challenging and  povides levels that are way beyond my ability. 
Helps keep me sharp.
-- sleyndyk, 2022-11-07

### ***** "Wonderful"
This game is really wonderful! I wish it was available on the Mac so I could play it on a larger screen! Thanks for a swell game! The only thing that I don’t like is that it is too easy to get a draw. I also wish there was a way to graph my rating. I play everyday to help my brain wake up. I hope that tChess Pro gets ported to Big Sur soon! SupperDAD
-- ¿Por qué no, 2022-09-21

### ***** "Michael Schwind"
I have been using this app for several years and have been very satisfied with it. All of my important games are stored in the app and I constantly am looking up games - usually to share with someone. I use the game analysis feature a lot when I want a quick analysis of a game. I would recommend this app to anyone.
-- Mike Schwindler, 2022-08-24

### ***** "Check"
Best qualities: ease of use and quick.
-- Watchutalkinboutwillis, 2022-04-22

### ***-- "Inaccurate ratings"
I’ve been using this app for 10 years or so. The computer ratings are definitely off in this game. The computer plays a lot stronger then the given rating - my guess is probably 300-400 rating points stronger. Wish the developers would fix this.
-- A-Nshani, 2022-04-03
