I like the puzzles a lot, but after you solve one, a green message box obscures a significant part of the board, so you can’t study where things ended up.After I submitted this review, one of the developers responded and said he would try to fix the message box location in a future update.Thanks for the great response!
Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback! I will try to adapt this message box in a future update.
Free and effective!

I am glad you like it 😊
Not bad

The graphics blow goats but it’s a good app. It would be nice if you could rewind and forward the moves to see it unfold again and again. For a free app- you could do a heck of a lot worse.
Not good puzzles
WaffleRazor
I played a couple puzzles and the answers to them did not make any sense. There were a few that completely missed mating opportunities and had me capture material instead. Another had me check the king and allowed a pawn to get captured instead of defending it and promoting. The app also crashes randomly.
If you play on more than one device, the leaderboards now count each puzzle once. Plus small improvements.
