Tactics for Negative User Reviews
✓ Awful, damages Chessbase's reputationTerrible user interface, no history, can't go back. Can't imagine who designed, built or QA'd this app. Chessbase has a good reputation but it's seriously knocked with this app. Update: getting the same constant crashes as reported elsewhere. Won't buy other CB products for iPad.Version: 1.02
✓ Impossibly badThis is the most confusing, least functional chess tactics program I've ever seen for iOS; there's no reason in the world this software should've been released in this lousy condition. It's embarrassing how badly ChessBase is adapting to the new world of tablet computing and mobile apps..Version: 1.02
✓ Peice of💩.Version: 1.02
✓ Still crashes every time I make a moveUnfortunately, the updated app still crashes every time I reach a specific endgame tactic in which each side has 3 pawns and no pieces. Once I reach this problem, it will crash every time I make a move. If I try to skip this problem, it will crash on the next problem, every time..Version: 1.01
✓ TacticsAlways crashes, I expected better. Very disappointed!.Version: 1.02
✓ Keeps crashingNot bad app when I first installed. solved 80 positions and now keeps crashing. Now deinstalled..Version: 1.02
✓ DOES NOT WORK.At a certain point the app will crash EVERYTIME you key in a move..Version: 1.02
✓ CB TacticsThis could be a great help to budding chess gamers like me if it wasn't full of bugs. Everytime I do a correct move the app closes down. Then my score stays the same even though it's the correct move. I am using an iPhone 5 and iOS 6.3. Please fix ASAP. Thank you..Version: 1.0
✓ Poorly doneThis doesn't feel like an iOS game at all. The interface is horrible. The chess problem may be interesting but they are badly designed and poorly described: I tried two and they were both 'Black to move and win', except it didn't meant in the next move! And White's response to the "hinted" move is not forced... so badly posed chess problems. In short... a poorly done chess problems app. Why is this a Featured App???.Version: 2.0
✓ Major bugAfter getting about 3/4 the way through, a bug appears. The bug always first appears on the same puzzle (the one u put black in zugzwang before taking pawn Kxg5). As soon as you try to move the pawn to the right square the app crashes back to iOS home screen. Can only get around by pressing hint first, then moving the piece. But you must continue to press hint before any subsequent moves after this, or again the app crashes once you make the right move. Using hint results in not being awarded the point for the puzzle, which is fundamental aim of solving the puzzles...! Please fix....Version: 1.02
✓ UselessNot sure what they're thinking putting this on such a respected brand. Input is clunky and it sometimes takes several tries for a move to register. Some of the variations seem a bit odd too. It may have just been the frustration building up, but it seemed to ask you to perform menial tasks such as find the pin when there was a mate on the board. Tactics are a decent training tool IF you can go back and figure out why something was played. Otherwise it is an exercise in futility. A tactics trainer should let you play around with the solution so you understand what just happened. This doesn't include that, it doesn't give variations when you've solved the problem, and you can't even stop and look at the board when you've found the solution. It just takes you to the next task without giving you time to learn from the puzzle. The result is a waste of time..Version: 1.01
✓ Horrible.There are no instructions on how to use this app..Version: 1.02
✓ WeakFirst a "tactic" in this app is 1 MOVE, so 1 "puzzle" could count for as many as 5 "tactics" so you may not get 100 puzzles for 99¢, second, not all are tactics, some puzzles are just for the best move, which can be confusing if you're looking for a tactic..Version: 1.02
✓ Waste of money! Keeps crashingFor a few hours it was great and then it started to crash / close itself down. Very disappointed because I'm trying to get back into chess after a break of a few years. Save your money until CB update this potentially useful app..Version: 1.02
