Magnus Trainer 2

The app takes forever to load, needs internet connection for some reason if you’re not already in middle of a lesson. If I come back to the app a bit late, I have to go through the whole menu again, which again remember is very slow. That’s enough friction to not make me want to use it.

The app has a lot of good subjects but the delivery style is very heavy with guess the move in every pages making the courses hard to remember or to memorize. I wish it could be better. So I canceled my subscription

When I play Chess Sprint, for some pieces like the Knight, once you collect 20 orbs, even though there are 45 on the level, it says you collected all orbs. Meanwhile, for the King and Pawn, when you collect absolutely every orb on the map (a very small map, mind you), it says you only collected 1/4 of the orbs on the map.

So I was logging as a “guest” everyday and it was keeping my progress then bought 50 coins and still everything was ok. I decided to sign up. Still worked with my progress and coins transferred and all good. Then today when I login it shows me as a fresh subscriber with all my purchased coins gone !!! 🤔

I really want to get better at chess so I an beat my friends. I decided to try this app in hope of getting better at chess, but I can’t even open the game. This is super frustrating. P.S All my other Magnus games work.

Game looks like a neat and interesting way to learn chess however it doesn’t even work. After selecting your level then pressing “yes let’s get started” nothing happens. That’s it.

So I’ve finished all the ‘free’ content I could access and the app is definitely polished. The only issue I ran into was that the actual ‘game’ mode didn’t actually end when checkmate occurred. That said, the cost is beyond excessive. You get a small set of coins to start that can unlock anything, but each thing you unlock is extremely small. Just one small lesson (think 30 seconds of content) is a coin, and buying more coins is more expensive than entire books on chess that will cover the entire game. So, great job on the app, but in general, save your money and go buy a book.

Can’t get past difficulty select at the start of the game.

This app isn’t bad, but I loved Play Magnus and Magnus Chess Trainer. What I particularly like about this app though is the Tactics Frenzy. Thanks! I will play all three!

I really valued mind mirage in the original app…. Why did you guys take out mind mirage?!?!
