What a joke
Every time i almost win it stalemates I had two rooks two bishop the queen and a knight left and it had two ponds and the king and it stalemated, it’s stale mated before but this is pathetic just take the loss
2025-12-21
an older app but still stands up today
its free to play, and has zero adds whatsoever!
im not a chess expert, but i enjoy playing the cpu on lower levels
2025-12-15
SO GARBAGE
what the frick is even this it was just the king took my pawn and it was just our Kings left but it didn’t draw. TOTAL GARBAGE
2025-10-30
No Wi-Fi Great
I love it answer is no since you don’t need any Wi-Fi
2025-10-28
Can’t win on check
It says “stalemate” when their king has been checked and won’t allow me to complete the game and achieve checkmate. It basically stops the game right before I’m about to win.
2025-10-08
Good
Good
2025-09-19
Winning
I’m not a competitive chest player. It feels really good to win on the easy level. I hope to improve thank you for making the app.
2025-09-16
Chess Puzzles
I found it very entertaining; I completed all the puzzles, a total of 1000. There were one-move, two-move, and three-move puzzles. I recommend these puzzles to improve visualization in chess.
2025-08-18
VERY FUNNY!
Puzzle 114 mate in 2 has both bishops on Black! REALLY?
2025-08-09
Love it
I love to take a break and just play a relaxing game of chess.
If I find I am winning more often I will raise the level. Always fun keeps my mind active

Chess
Exceptional. I have no word to praise!
2025-07-22
Just chess!
This game is from years ago , before developers just created games for your enjoyment , not to bombard you with those useless, annoying idiotic ads.
It's just a game of chess, nothing more, nothing less. Just love it!!!

Why I Wanted To Play Chess
Back in 2015, when we first came to Vancouver Island, my mom started to form her own ABM (Anat Baniel Method) clinic. She was struggling to find a name for her own business, such as synonyms for “child”. But then, she found the perfect name… “Prodigy Movement.” At that time, I didn’t like the name. But then I looked up the word “prodigy” in the dictionary, and it showed me an example about a chess prodigy. But then, I said that I wanted to be a chess player when I grow up.

Ugh

Great game
Level challenges are competitive & allows cognitive understanding of the game.
2025-05-06
Remove this game from the App Store
How do we get this game removed?! I’ve never in my 25yrs of playing anything have seen a game cheat so bad…..i mean honestly how TF you gonna move 2-3 pieces per move and think no one will notice
2025-05-04
very good
you should have a mode that it doesnt tell you were to go for people that are learning chess
2025-04-16
Mouvement
À certains moments le système n’accepte pas certains mouvements valables surtout vers la fin d’une partie. Et je ne peut roquer avec les.blancs. Mais j’aime vraiment votre applicaption.
2024-12-24
Too easy
I’m not an experienced chess player, but hard difficulty is too easy.
2024-11-29
Great
Thank for all the games I lost
2024-11-16
AI plays like a funny 6 year old
When the A.I is lossing it will check you back to back, went 30 mins with the same 2 spaces. Waste of time
2024-11-09
Chess

Chess is a good game
I like Chess but I feel like normal is too hard a little bit like it isn’t normal so I think you should just fix normal. Make it a little bit easier but do not make it easy. Just make it a little bit easier like a tiny bit because normal is too hard.
2024-09-30
Fun game
It so fun with the little challenges it’s amazing and I just wish I can play wherever I am I love it so much
2024-09-26

1000 fun puzzles
Love the game and especially the puzzles. I solved all the puzzles and it’d be nice if they had even more. Only issue is the hardest setting/level is still too easy but still fun since I always win ;-) I also like that you can take your move back if you messed up.
2024-09-21
Good game
I rely lioke it
2024-09-20
Glitch
There have times when I move my pawn beside the opposing pawn and the opposing pawn takes my pawn!!!!!
Why?
2024-08-04
Awesome

Chess.com is way better!
Chess.com is way better!!!
2024-07-12
Excellent!
More puzzles please!
2024-07-09
Amateur level at best. Worthless in reality.
This game plays stupid patterns that no one would actually play unless they had brain surgery recently and further declares “stalemate” at arbitrary times. Spend some money and get a good chess game. This isn’t it.
2024-07-02
…
No one
Wants your crapy game in existence
2024-06-30
Nothing to complain about.
it's just straight up chess. no ads either
2024-05-06
Comically bad in many ways
This app’s ai chess plays at at children’s skill level even on the hardest setting. Also, The puzzles seem to have been written by a sub-800 rated player, the interface also looks and plays terribly, use literally any other chess app instead.
2024-04-11
Best game ever I’ve been learning how to play chess and getting better. I love this game.

TOO MENY ADDS
whenever i play an ad pops up and every min ad AD AD!
2024-03-26
Will rip you off
Charges more than what is posted for hints, no way to get your money back. Do not pay for anything on this app
2024-02-13
Puzzle 33 pawn glitch
If you move Qe1, bot goes Kf6, you move pawn to c4, checkmate, but then the bot moves pawn at d4 to c3 magically taking your pawn at c4

CHESS
Love playing Chess on my mobile device! Wonderful game! Marvellous experience to hone my skills at chess through the day!

Broken Game
Marks matches as stalemate when victory is a move or two away
2023-02-05
Sore loser computer
Every time you back the computer into a corner it declares a stalemate… junk
2023-01-10
Not good
During certain points I’ve noticed the AI does moves to prevent losing its queen which aren’t possible nor condonable in chess.
2022-12-28
Garbage
I love how the computer doesn’t like to lose, so when you are close to a checkmate all of a sudden it says stalemate instead.
2022-10-09
Terrible
So computer can do moves but you can't. Also glitches where you can't control a piece when in real world you can.
2021-12-27
Not real chess
The rules are not the real rules
2021-12-24
Garbage
Every time the opponent/computer is on the verge of loosing, it stops the game and says “stalemate” but yet when the opponent/computer is winning it never says stalemate for the player. Complete garbage. Puzzles… buy hints? Really. Do not download this trash chess game
2021-11-27
AI Cheats
Decent game but the ai legit will cheat and either move multiple pieces in one turn on occasion, or randomly removes your piece somehow, even screen recorded for video evidence cause I couldn’t believe this joke
2021-07-01
Illegal moves
How can a pawn move diagonally to an empty square? Like how? Where did you learn your chess from?
2020-11-24
Constant ads ruin a good app
The puzzles are fun but when you get stuck you have to buy hints. Which I can accept, but the relentless ads after every single puzzle solve is asinine.
If I’m paying, get rid of g#% da#%n ads! It’s pathetic to see how the apps have degenerated over the years.

Challenging, we’ll set up, makes you feel like a champion—and then breaks your heart!

Tired of all the bells & whistles? Then come on board.

Lots of fun and can’t beat the price.
