ProblemsThis game is brilliant for getting better at chess but the only problem is that when you delete it then download it again it sometimes just totally crashes and jams!.Version: 1.65

ChessSorry it did not help me. I was playing it earlier against the computer. I had a break and when I resumed the computer was not playing against me. Help please..Version: 1.65

Movements are wrongPretty sure a pawn cannot move diagonally unless taking a piece. Need to sort this out please..Version: 1.65

Like the game but on a phoneI used to have this app on my phone. Now on my ipad the orientation it is fixed - on portait orientation - it would be nice if it could be the other way especially if you have a keyboard. But other than that I like the game..Version: 1.65

GlitchySometimes I can't move pieces to where I want like one time my rook was right in front of the king and I couldn't move my rook.Version: 1.65

Not exactlyWell Really all I can say is that you made 1 mistake. White goes first, not black, white. The rest you can keep the same.Version: 1.70

Ads to start! No no no!!!It didn’t even open the thing before showing me an ad. That’s on the first try after downloading. An ad. Deleted straight away..Version: 2.00

GreatLove playing it.Version: 1.10

Some major flawsIf the two flaws were fixed this would be a superb app, but it has problems. Firstly it regularly fails to detect when it puts you in checkmate so you have to end the game and of course this means the stats are wrong. Secondly it really needs the option to resign a game rather than forcing you to continue a game you know you've lost..Version: 1.65

Don’t upgradeWill take your money to remove adds but does not remove them be careful.Version: 1.70

Full of bugsThis game is pretty much broken. You sometimes lose your pieces without even the bot making a move! Sometimes it says checkmate in mid-game!!???.Version: 1.20

WhyWhy can i not get a checkmate... it’s like, the king is the last one on the board, then i’m like ha checkmate... right. WRONG IS SAYS DRAW, HOW IS THAT A DRAW, I CANT GET THE SATISFACTION OF BEATING THE OTHER TEAM. just delete your game.Version: 1.70

Ok game, but buggyMy download seems always to seize up after I've moved, with the computer taking a while to function. This doesn't happen in two player. Also, it might be a petty gripe, but I really dislike how when you've beaten the computer, the game declares it a draw by stalemate. When the computer beats you and puts your king in check, it comes up as a defeat. When you beat it though, the game can't even give you the satisfaction of telling you that you've won. I mean come on, checked the king in three moves, and they call that a stalemate?.Version: 1.92

Poor, why can't I put my iPad between myself and another personJust want to play a normal sort of chess but this game wants to flip the things making me need to pass the iPad or my opponent to have to read upside down.Version: 1.10

Mostly good and challenging but buggyWhile the game is mostly quite good and has a good adjustable challenge meter, it is buggy on quite a few occasions. It makes your pieces simply disappear on random occasions without moving any piece of the computer. I guess its more 'humanly' deceitful than one would expect. But it surely ruins a good game and undo doesn't fix it! So just the 3 stars..Version: 1.55

Rediculous!Great for beginners playing on the levels below halfway difficulty, but playing the computer above halfway causes it to make illegal moves like moving into check, not allowing you to move when there are no reasons for you not to, reappearing and disappearing pieces, and suddenly ending the game saying the computer has put you in checkmate when I wasn't even in check! I took a piece and it reappeared later in the game out of nowhere! I moved my queen and it was safe, yet disappeared and none of the computer's pieces even moved! One time, I moved my bishop, which was covered by the queen, next to the king and the computer's king captured it! The king moved into check! That is never supposed to happen! I love the app for playing with others, but not for training on the computer. Please fix!.Version: 1.65

What # 4 saidThat thing where it wont let you CM the opponent is just so bad..Version: 1.65

Unfair.The mechanics are all off and the CPU always cheats. When you're in check, you cannot move any other piece than the king. I could have captured the piece that checked my king, but it didn't let me. Also, it gave my king a check mate when I obviously had places where I could be safe. Terrible game, not fair, with lots of bugs and it will crash and make you very bad at chess by teaching you the wrong rules..Version: 1.65

OkGood but can't seems to rotate the board landscape to play and will be cool if I can listen to my own music..Version: 1.25

StupidWhat a stupid game it keep sayin the computer won when it didnt??!!!!!!!!>:(.Version: 1.50

Decent app but inconsistentI like the app because it's simple. However, there are several moves left to make and it becomes a draw when it's not the case..Version: 1.65

Nice Ui annoying engineOn the harder levels it repeatedly makes useless moves like Ra2, then Ra1 back and forth when it is getting outplayed and doesn't care to take a draw... So it's an epic fail as a chess playing program.Version: 1.65

App cheats!To avoid a checkmate the app makes a pawn move several squares like a bishop! I have screens to prove it!.Version: 1.70

CONTINUES TO CRASHThis chess app has strayed from genuine chess rules, which makes it a non-genuine version. 1. It crashes when you play your moves are too fast. 2. The 3-move repetition rule is faulty. 3. It plays for a stalemate when you're about to win. 4. Pieces disappear. One star. 👍🏼.Version: 1.65

UndoShould be able to undo after a draw or checkmate..Version: 1.65

Free but too many adsThe app is good and well thought out. However, the ads are annoying and off putting. Just a few fewer ads would make it more acceptable. Plenty of free games out there so hopefully, they will change it as the game design, look and 'feel' are excellent..Version: 1.20

WorksBasic, works, it's free, great!.Version: 1.55

ImpossibleSorry I don't like it. It is just too hard. They aren't even close to you and apparently there are no rules so they beat you it one move and you can't beat them they should have to actually kill your KING not queen or king to win.Version: 1.65

Never ending...You can't kill the opponent's king. It won't move your piece to it if it's check, and it's totally autistic..Version: 1.65

Not impressedThe free version has distracting ads that flicker and move constantly. If playing computer, it makes its move so quickly after you do that sometimes you're not certain what it did or what piece it just captured and there's no list on the board showing the captured pieces. I also don't find the HD it advertises so much as being that impressive. The computer is very challenging though..Version: 1.65

Ok game butThis game is ok but it has 2 major flaws a the queen goes on her own couler and b white always starts.Version: 1.55

AlrightCrashes continously since patch.Version: 1.25

Minor issuePlays well with a time limit but in two player games both users end up with the 2nd players name... On both the iPad and iPhone versions..Version: 0

MixedWhen I played it falsely recognised threefold repetition and you also can't castle in this game. All in all it was a great game.Version: 1.65

Tad glitchyTad glitchy. Not too bad though! Me.Version: 1.65

Why was that a draw by stalemate?I love this app and I find the AI to be brilliant however why is it when I have 6 pieces including a queen and a rook do I get a stalemate? At first I thought it was a glitch but it keeps happening even when I get checkmate it sometimes says draw by stalemate. Can someone please change this coz it is very frustrating.Version: 1.65

Nice, but iOS 11 has ruined it.Really don't need more then this for casual play. Not working smoothly after iOS 11 on my iPad Air. It now immediately takes the move without an sliding motion..Version: 1.65

Must be a bugI agree with another comment that sometimes it says checkmate when there is no checkmate at all ,and that the coomputer claims a win when it has not won ,but that only happens occasionally,otherwise very good.Version: 1.50

Not for advanced playersIt said check mate when it's obviously a stale mate, bad, and it said check mate when it's not a check mate,.Version: 1.25

100% ad update - do not update under any circumstancesDo not update. Zero new functionality. Absolutely zero. Unless you count the addition of extremely obtrusive ads. Latest version is a kick in the junk for fans of this otherwise-pretty-good version of chess..Version: 1.65

Timer not for meCan’t turn it off I play for relaxing and sometimes want it fast and sometimes slow - but the timer controls the board. Give me a off switch for timer and I’ll return the missing stars!.Version: 1.70

Some BugsIt's quite a good simple chess app to just play but in terms of learning or understanding the game there are limited to no options. Also I noticed a couple of bugs when games would stalemate yet it was not a true stalemate as other pieces could move and potentially break the stalemate or have the offensive side checkmate. Another bug that happened while I was playing was near the mid/end game I had undone a move to see what piece the computer had taken my bishop with, it was a pawn that had moved four or so spaces diagonally as if it were a bishop and when I replayed the move the pawn turned into a bishop without promoting and the computer now had two white square bishops and won the match... Overall some bugs but generally a nice simple chess game..Version: 1.65

Free version is betterThe AI in this version is terrible. The amount of time it takes to move is beyond frustrating. Sadly the free version of this app this better because the AI doesn't take at least five seconds to move. Also human players can't castle but the AI does it freely. If the AI is losing it forces a draw via repetition. Leaves a lot to be desired..Version: 1.70

Great app but just needs one thing.Definitely worth downloading. But only thing needs to be done is in two player mode the oppositions pieces should be facing the reverse direction to match the second players seating position. When they change that it will be 100 percent perfect..Version: 1.50

Not Happy New Year!It’s not ok to suddenly have to pay again for the Chess app..Version: 1.86

Sorry for one star...Chess HD used to be a good game. It’s ad supported but the ads were tastefully displayed and didn’t detract from the game. That was then. Now, what the hell are you thinking? Do you think you’re going to retain users with these bloody ignorant video ads, with multi view ads, with ads that dominate the screen for minutes at a time? You need users. If everyone deletes this trashy app — like I will right now — then your ad revenue will drop to zero. That’s greed for ya! Outta here…..Version: 2.00

I want a refund, computer is sore loserI was just moving in for the kill and the computer’s pawn slid 6 squares diagonally across the board and took my white bishop!! What a cheat. Tried hitting ‘undo’ but I really wanted to make my vital move and each time I repeated it the computer did the illegal move. Nasty glitch. Apart from that I was having a good time playing it. 2 things I would like in addition: 1. The levels to have numbers rather than a vague sliding bar of difficulty 2. The pieces which have been taken to sit on the side of the board. Sometimes I have to do a quick stock check to see what I have left..can’t be doing with cheaters tho!!.Version: 1.70

OkayNice, and it's free, but the design makes it very difficult to clearly make out the pieces, especially during the middle game when no pieces have been taken. Rather have a clear looking board than nice design..Version: 1.65

Good but some flaws...This app is great and I really enjoy playing this with others however there are some flaws, the app keeps freezing and no matter how many times I reset it it’s always frozen on the same page..Version: 2.00

Good but...Every time you are actually GOING TO WIN on a hard difficulty it forces you to a draw by 'threefold' repition. It only doesn't do that on really easy modes and those are just boring cos they're so easy anyway..Version: 1.65

It’s okWhen you tried to place your opponent in a vulnerable position the game would help your opponent by not allowing them to move into a position where they would lose which in some ways can be very aggravating other than that the game seemed to resemble the real life chess in many ways. I believe that the game could have great potential if the game allowed you to move where you wanted to even if it puts you in an unfortunate position..Version: 1.70

Good! but until when?...Excellent game so far (plaid 4 games up till now...). I've just been interrupted in the middle of a game to ask for upgrade with payment or to write a review. I just hope that once I wrote this review it still give me access for free....Version: 1.10

Quits in middle of a game! Poor!Have played this repeatedly and after a random number of games it always quits unexpectedly in the middle of a game, which annoyingly then resets the stats back to zero. I have sent reports back but no fix as yet. You might be best looking elsewhere as this game will frustrate you with it's poor performance Still randomly resetting the win totals back to zero and the ads are click bait or for other rubbish games.Version: 1.87

Someone can't set up a chess board !!!This is a good game fun to play with friends how ever the only problem is that the Kings are on the wrong square you would think the developers would know how a chess board should be set up!.Version: 1.65

ChessIt won't let u move a lot and it's not that fun and it's boring and it's kinda stupid and hardly let's u move :(.Version: 1.55

UghDoes not let me move any pieces and don't say it's because I don't know how to play, I'm pretty sure porn can got diagonally and it won't let me. So improve or you won't get much views on this game..Version: 1.65

Software glitchesI have been enjoying playing this, but I have never seen a pawn being able to move four squares diagonally before to take one of my rooks. The game is cheating! Please fix this issue..Version: 1.65

Only one issue - bugsPretty interface but it’s probably the engine that has the bugs leading to occasional crashes or suddenly a piece disappearing from play. The standard engines open source engines have had this sorted for years so not quite clear what is the issue. Very disconcerting when checkmate is announced when it is in three moves but not quite there yet.Version: 1.86

SimpleIt is great to learn how to play..Version: 1.55

BlehIt's good until you realize it resets your game when you've been inactive for an hour, which renders this app virtually worthless except for quick games..Version: 1.55

Remove Stalemate!I like this app a lot, but when it is a draw because of stalemate, it ruins the whole app. Today alone, I was literally ONE MOVE away from check mating the Cpu and winning, but it forced ended the game due to stalemate. Again, the Cpu only had one piece, which was the king, and I had several. It forced ended the game due to stalemate. This is some cheat tactic for when I'm about to win, the Cpu ends the game and calls it stalemate, basically. Please remove this, I can't even have a fair chess match at all, without the Cpu flipping the table and calling it a draw..Version: 1.65

I hate this chess gameI hate this chess game because when I do One move I get checkmated and I was going to checkmate him the computer but when I was going to I got checkmated when I just move and after you get checkmated you can’t undo and at the first time I said it was very good and I rated for stars and now I’m the chess man dude when I Sent itFirst I said it was very good but now I hate it.Version: 1.92

AvoidNew advert system makes play impossible adds pop up during game ever 15 seconds pointless way of trying to force you to buy app avoid and go for one of the better apps.Version: 1.65

BugBeen using this 5 star app for years now, but all of a sudden it’s giving ‘draw’ messages in local co op rather then check mate etc, would appreciate a fix!.Version: 1.92

Queen and king on wrong position, game unplayableQueen and King need to be swapped. Castle not allowed..Version: 1.70

Worst app everDon't try it, you'll get checkmake even when not..Version: 1.55

CrashesI have used this app in free and paid versions for years. Recently on my iPad Pro 2020 the paid version has started to crash as soon as touch the one player or any buttons in the app. I have reboot my iPad to get it working. I can play a few games then it starts to crash again. Please fix this. Thanks..Version: 1.86

Not working properly anymoreIn the last month starting a game takes up to 30 seconds cause you have to come in and out 4 times before the game can begin Reset the start button reset the difficulty and two more I have restarted the computer many times Updated apps but still nothing.Version: 1.92

CheatingVery one sided stalemate settings - when in a winning position the app calls ‘draw’! after a couple of moves. Not so much when you are losing. C’mon man - be fair!,.Version: 1.70

Good but impossibleIt is a very good game overall but there is one bad thing that they need to take out. It will not let you make a move that will make you lose the game. If you do it on two player mode nobody can win because it won't let you accidentally die so it should let you move wherever you want apart from that good.Version: 1.65

StupidFine for wasting time now and then, but it gets really annoying when the game is declared a draw when you have checkmate. Or the flip side of that, when you have been checkmated but the game continues on while denying you every move because all would result in the capture of the king. Seems like stupid programming oversight that wouldn't be hard to fix. If that ever happens I'll change my review title from stupid to smart. Is Optimus up for the challenge?.Version: 1.70

Major bug?While I was in the middle of playing against a computer, I made the wrong move and my pawn was taken, when I reset the turn, my pawn turned into a queen, although this is an advantage to me, it makes the game slightly less fun as it wasn’t a fair match. Another bug occurred also when playing against a computer, I moved my queen and as the computer was deciding where to go, my queen disappeared 😒 Please fix these bugs as it’s ruining the game!.Version: 1.70

Chess FreeWell done app however it tries to sell you other apps which I don't mind but some of the apps will lock and you have to remove chess free and reinstall it. I think I will look for a new chess game if issue isn't corrected ..Version: 1.65
