Long way to go

This app is incomplete. Firstly, the “easy” bot will handily beat a beginner opponent. Offering no chance to learn anything other than what it feels like to have no idea what to do.

Secondly, the app advertises that you can “train” on this app. This seems to be intentionally vague wording meant to disguise the fact that playing and losing does technically count as training, but fools the player into presuming they can aid their current training with this app. Which is not the case if you’re training anything other than “what are the weaknesses in my opening.”

Lastly, the features included with the subscription to this app are kept vague unless you purchase it. Meaning the only way for me to prove my previous two points incorrect is if I pay for the app and hope the included features solve my issues.

In short this app is misleading and unsatisfactory at best, and is a long way from fulfilling the expectations it sets

P.S. “battles of wits” and “touching an ancient game” are not selling points for a chess app. Those are default truths of chess as a game. Those two things are true about literally any program that you can use to play chess. That’s like advertising a burger as “edible and enjoyable.”

Hello, chess is a legendary game, you can use the free functionality and train at an easy level
