I've played chess for fifty years. Not very well I'm afraid. I've played classic boards, automated boards and app boards. App boards are by far my favorite. So convenient and versatile! This app is my favorite. First, I like the way it "plays". I'm actually slowly becoming a better player! For me the board is intuitive to use and helpful. The many boards and pieces to choose from is a nice touch. I also sometimes save games to play later. The menu bars cover everything I ever want to do and the fonts are very nicely done. The best chess board I have ever owned! Period.

I’ve only played a few games, however I like the concept of how the system works. As you work on achieving your rating, it plays you at your level and will let you win (so far), however it really makes you think. It’ll make a few stupid moves and then return with some brilliant moves. I’m sure it’ll play a lot smarter as you advance in your rating. It’s a fun game to play and very educational. Well worth the few bucks I paid for it. So far, no problems or hiccups playing it on my IPad.

For someone that loves the game (but hasn’t played in years) this is a near ideal match. It can play at quite an easy level for when you are rusty but, as you get better, it will give you a run for your money. The free app is nice but the paid (one time) is well worth it! Many nice features! You spend more on coffee during a work day. 😉 Highly recommended.

This is the best app on chess I have ever seen! When I was a teenager I was pretty good at the game, but after I graduated from High School I did not play that much. When I started working in the private sector I did not play at all. Now, after 30yrs, I am now retired and am now able to get back to playing the ULTIMATE game of strategy. I highly recommend this app.
