Schach: Play & Train

Don't you think it's a bit much? The computer stops playing every now and then. And you still want the same amount of money that Spotify costs, per week? No one is going to pay that for an app.

Thankë

The make u pay $10 before u can even begin playing a simple chess game like it’s the most special game ever and u have to pay it weekly. Insane money grab for an app that can easily be replaced

This app is literally set up to make money. All the 5 star reviews are bogus, saying basically the same thing, and the names of the reviewers are all bogus nonsense. $480 a month to learn chess from a crap app? Run.

How did this get on the App Store - at a 4.5 rating no less! Ok so… 1) Just after the splash startup screen you have to pay $10 A WEEK to even play?! No evidence of a free trail. 2) After a force quit and reload, I booted up a game against the computer - 3 levels…yes 3 levels: easy, medium and hard. No ELO rating. 3) I was playing black and my pieces were at the top of the board with no buttons to flip. No buttons to go forward or back, no time controls no options… There are way better options - STAY CLEAR of this one.

This is the single sketchiest thing I've experienced on the Apple Store. App doesn't open. Hangs on a splash screen. Thinks I've agreed to pay? Nope. Work on making something functional. This is creepy, and I'll be watching closely for unauthorized charges. You can't offer a "free trial" when there's literally nothing to try. It's just a splash screen, like a blank title page.

App is trying to charge you $10/mo at startup, not even letting you to move thru the start screen to see what are you actually buying. No, ty for $10 I can get a real chess game.

Installed app > forced into a paywall to access or create trial > pay for a week > accessing app will keep you stuck at the logo perpetually.

Just beware: they make you purchase a $10 subscription before you can even begin playing. The subscription is WEEKLY. It’s very overpriced. The game design is ridiculously simple, and if you need to pause or restart the game the menu even says “retart” which makes me think that little real effort went into its development. There are plenty of other game apps that you don’t have to pay for and I’m sure put more thought into design.

Making people pay to play a free game is laughable. Hold my nuts please nerd
