The levels are very good and the difficult level has a brilliant algorithm and logic. I love this game and in this app, you can sharpen your skills. It's the best chess apps. It would have been better if there could be different themes of boards and pieces and also if there is an option to retire rather than playing all through out and then coming to a draw.

The app is OK. I wouldn't go beyond that. - On the pro side, it had a wonderful lack of add harassment. It plays quickly. Its move algorithms are in line with levels of play. - On the con side, it lacks the "obvious" piece distinction between king, queen and bishop. It's there, but it's subtle and takes getting use to. It doesn't give numerical values to levels of play. It doesn't give resign or abandon options.

Easy hardest difficulty out of all the chess apps. Everytime you make a move that will ultimately win you the game or an advantage, the game 'conveniently' ends in a draw. Can't undo once the game ends in a draw to get a checkmate. Most unsatisfying chess game. Do not waste your time downloading, there are many better and more difficult chess apps out there.

Abesolutely superb chess app to kill time and always a thrilling experience when playing a new game. The computer will always keep you on your toes and immediately reprimand you for not paying attention. My only pet peeve is the endless ads that may disrupt you during a game that pulls you into another window in google play store along with a glitch that affects the game from time to time that causes it to take forever to load to play. Other than that I have no other concerns 👍🏼😁!!!

I would never play this in public because the ads can be very very weird. I might be really embarrassed if someone randomly saw one of the ads pop up. I enjoyed the fact that the easiest level is easier than most apps because sometimes it's fun to just turn your brain off and win a quick game.

The game sewms to get really hard at level 4 but 1 to 3 are pretty good at giving you time to think out 3 or 4 moves ahead. Great training tool not a fan of always being able to take back your moves but again...it's a great trainer for someone who has played, but doesn't have enough experience to play a federation level tournament. I like even though it pisses me off sometimes when i loose.
