I payed for spark chess premium and now I can not access it. Started out liking it that is why I payed, but now I just feel ripped off!

only 1 mode unless you pay cheesy computer only has one hand to use blunders too much even for hardest difficulty doesnt help you learn chess only if you want easy wins to make you feel good about yourself

Here is why this Sparkchess is completely stupid and really annoying. Basically you either play Cody who anyone can destroy, or you play Clair, who destroys you every time. To get someone in the middle of both extremes, you have to pay! So basically this is the most pointless game without paying unless you find it fun to destroy Cody in no time or lost EVERY time to Clair. And who wants to pay $15 to play a stupid game of chess. Not me! I can literally play as many games as I want for free with an average difficulty other places. Not to mention how HORRIBLE the adds are! So please don't waste your time on something as pointless as this. I'd recommend leaving a 1 star review too so more people will avoid frustration.
