ヴァイキング・チェス: ネファタフルオンライン

It’s simple but challenging.

I was enjoying this app until it would kick me out of my game against the computer and force me to play against a human opponent. Why???? I clearly have “CPU” marked as my opponent. Please fix this!! It is absolutely infuriating. It has happened as soon as right after my first move as well as at any point in the game with no way to exit or decline this forced match. The only other thing that could be improved is that sometimes, even in intermediate mode, it is way too easy to win with the computer missing extremely obvious moves that even a beginner would catch. Fix these issues and I’ll change this review to 5 stars.

Needs no time limits

I wish there was a way to remove the time limit and prevent it from automatically making a move for you if the time runs out

Rules are incomplete and the “examples” Of the few that are “shown” are blank on iOS. For example: the King cannot initiate capture of opposing pieces as he is considered unarmed. The throne cannot be reentered but can be used as a space to capture against even for the King. How does the king escape and win? It doesn’t tell us?! Please list all rules with picture examples.

This game could be fun if the game controls weren’t so poor. Zoom in and out steps bad and game selects wrong pawns which really screws up game play

This app allows you to play every version of Hnefatafl that I have ever seen along with some I haven’t. The animations and graphics are better than I could have asked for. Learn to play this game and you will enjoy it.

As the king, I was counted as captured when on the edge of the board and directly adjacent to a corner refuge square when black had only two pieces adjacent to me. A pawn would have been captured, but the king could freely move into the corner and win.

Where is the “I resign” button? I have made a mistake and wish to terminate this current game and start anew.

This app is really well done and a lot of fun. If it added other variants and ranked play online this app would be the place to go for all things tafl
