User Reviews

Users praise the app for a fun, solid chess experience with a worldwide player base and a nice interface. However, frequent disconnects, cheating, missing social/multiplayer features, questionable rating mechanics, and intrusive ads are the most recurring negatives across reviews.

Pros

Fun, solid core chess gameplay that many users describe as fabulous or fantastic.
Global matchmaking with players around the world; users enjoy playing against others worldwide.
Nice interface and visuals/graphics that many users compliment.
Good for teaching kids and exposing younger players to chess concepts.

Cons

Frequent disconnections and server issues that result in lost games and unfair outcomes.
Cheating and engine-assisted play are common complaints, with many users calling for better cheater reporting and enforcement.
Lack of built-in social features like a friends list or in-app chat; users want multiplayer with friends.
Rating system inconsistencies and unfair point adjustments (e.g., wins by opponent leaving, broken streaks).
Intrusive ads and audio interruptions during games (ads and sound issues).

very fabulous and fantastic game regardless of cheaters when we about to win and all of a sudden we have been disconnected. But since 2022 I had been playing well and it’s amazing. I just wish we can add friends and able to chat, even inside the app, if request is accepted then thus we can connect to all over the world. Gracias

It has too much ads after each game I have to watch an ads which is annoying. Plus it will disconnect on its own giving me a lose. At first I thought it was the connection but it was not. There are way better chess app out there. This use to be my app to go to bit they ruined it. For anybody who is interested in another app I recommend lichess way better app you do a whole lot of things that you can’t to on this app like study, puzzles, watch other people games etc etc. Although This app the only good thing I like is the graphics.
