This is a bad program.
First of all, I wasn't going to write a review even though this chess app is terrible. But EVERY SINGLE TIME I would turn on the app to play, I would get a pop up telling me about either, reviewing, or asking me to buy. And the pop-up was hilariously stupid on top of it. Each time, it would say that there was only a limited time to buy the app for a certain price. But I play this app every day sometimes and having this pop up saying they have this limited price every single day is annoying if not dumb.
Now, mind you, there is an option to choose"never" when the pop up asks you to rate the app. Does it work? Noooo. You click on never, and it keeps coming back consistently, annoyingly.
But onto the app itself. Download it for yourself. Play it for yourself. The game has very predictable moves that make growing as a chessplayer impossible with this app. I play it when I want to turn my brain off and to amuse myself sometimes but overall it is not the app to actually grow and learn from.
Improve the algorithm for moves on your stupid game, stop with the pop ups every single time someone wants to play, and when you have an option for the player to turn off pop-ups stick to your guns and give them that option.
Annoying.

When going to settings and clicking on the link saying I have zero free games left, the developer says something like, “Let’s be honest, we offer the free version in hopes that you will purchase the paid version”.
Unfortunately, your paid version is $10 (which is from your a “limited time” offer of 50% off - haha). Not many people are paying $10 for a chess app. I would pay a few bucks, but that’s all. I think many people are like me in this regard. Obviously, the developer is overvaluing the price of this app and thinks that eliminating the free version will drive people to purchase the overpriced pro version. That won’t happen, but hey, that’s his right.
So instead of having a reasonably priced game which many people would buy (because it’s a great app), they make the free version useless and alienate all of the loyal players who would’ve paid if it was priced reasonably. Now it’s on to searching for another chess app...it’s not like there aren’t a million others to choose from. Sure seems like a poor decision on their part. Five people paying $3 for the app (and recommending to their friends) is better than one person paying $10. Just sayin’.

I downloaded this game in the Summer of 2018 and loved it. You could work your way from lower to higher level Computer Opponents to improve your skills. Each time you met the requirement you got a token to use a pro-feature like setup position, analysis, playing a game with your friend. It gave you a taste of the Pro-version that would convince anyone to buy it because it was a good app. But then they updated it.
With the update they cut the features I used to use. You will have 10 free credits to play some good games and higher level opponents but then it’ll water the game down more and you will have minimal features. Can you even really get into the apps features with 10 games? Or will you spend it trying out the features only for it shut those off when you run out. All the new info says “we just want you to buy the pro version” instead of what they offered before. I get you made the app to make $ but I know people who bought it because of the quality of the lit-version. It didn’t feel like a bait and switch before but now I’m disappointed.
