If you dont pay attention it will cheat on occasion by taking a piece that you moved into a different spot, relocating it to a winning move and taking it.

It’s good, but the AI doesn’t act like a human. The mistakes it makes are ridiculous, and same with the mistakes it doesn’t make. It’s at the same time too smart and too dumb to be a human. So in that way, it’s unlike playing a normal game of chess. But that’s not necessarily its design. It’s great for practicing and playing chess on your own. Sometimes I get frustrated with it, but it’s still very well made. Would definitely recommend. Very fun and very good. 👍

Needs an undo button, also too easy. Hard mode could be easily beaten by a 1600 and up with minimal thinking.

Playing a two player game? You can now sit opposite each other, and the pieces will rotate for each player's turn.
