The start of something legendary

Chastity's Chess Review: Chess Remix

Strengths

It offers standard Chess but also the largest list of variants of any game on Steam, including Chess960, Crazyhouse, Atomic, Absorption, Elimination, Capture the Leader, Losing Chess, Three Check Chess, Pocket Knights, Shatar, No Check Chess, En Passant is forced, and the ability to create customized rules of each of these.

Also included are the 3 main Asian variants: Shogi, Xiangqi, and Janggi.
Historical Chess games and other non-chess games like Tic-Tac-Toe and Checkers

It offers a customizable theme appearance for backgrounds and pieces.

Weaknesses

Not all features are fully implemented, such as the "levels section". This will probably be fixed in future updates.

The artificial intelligence is rather weak and may be okay for people who don't play very well but disappointing to skilled chess players. This AI can be improved using fairy stockfish if the developer wishes.

Conclusion

This game is worth the price if you are a hard core chess player or play other board games involving strategy. It's also for the creative types who want to make their own rules and create board games and test them with AI.

I will update this review as needed when future updates are made.

Amazing! But I have a suggestion for a new feature…

This app is amazing! But I wish there were more features, like in the piece creator, I wish we could make our own multi-step pieces, like how you made the Lion from Chu Shogi! I am basically saying I wish there was an option to make a created path of a piece you created multi step. That means they do NOT have to stop when they capture.

Excellent! But could be better

I like to make chess variants that alter the rules in ways that are not possible here, but it’s as good as I could expect from an app. It would be cool if there were some other rules like, magnetic chess, anti-king, ultimate en passant, double move, and peace chess, ext. If there was more ways to combine the rules with each other that would greatly increase the possibilities for new games, but that can be difficult because sometimes rules clash and create new scenarios that require human creativity to solve. What if I want to move the opponents pieces, let pieces share a space, include a checker style capture, capture without moving, or play atomic crazyhouse chess? Overall this is a great app.

Some of the things listed are possible in the app. Checker style capture is in there, you can play many different forms of checkers. Capturing without moving is possible, you can make a move that captures and returns to the original square in the advanced piece creator. Atomic crazyhouse can be played by selecting drops and atomic in the rules menu
