Review summary

Users appreciate the app for its effective brain training and engaging chess puzzles spanning various difficulty levels with a clean, ad-free design. However, common criticisms include the absence of hints for beginners, restrictive move choices, inability to undo or learn from wrong moves, and some puzzles containing errors. Additionally, many note that paid content limits access beyond free levels. Overall, it's a fun and educational app, though improvements in hint and analysis features would enhance the experience.

Cons

Restrictive move options, not allowing multiple best moves.

Paid content limits access to advanced levels after free stages.
Some puzzles have errors or alternative solutions not accepted by the app.

2023-08-27	Da*****	The app is very efficient in the fact that it exercise your brain especially for those who want to join in a school chess tournament. I want to thank this app for helping me won the tournament on 2nd place 😁. Really great app, however I do want a request of change to this app; Every 10 minutes when the puzzle still aren't solved they can request a hint to help other players. Cause I still struggle in some puzzle But still a really great app and I hope you act on my request😃.

2023-02-04	Bh*****	I loved the game it helped me a lot in learning how to trap the king however the part that made me a tiny bit sad was that i needed to pay to do the other levels after i completed everything that was free because of which i wasn't able to play more but overall it was very good 4.5 star

2023-01-24	Pu*****	I really enjoyed this app, the single problem I have is that there are no hints so if you are a beginner, some puzzles can be a lot of trouble.

2022-12-20	Co*****	I noticed in the queen pack "somebody to checkmate" it doesn't matter which knight you move first, but the puzzle only lets you move the D5 knight. I tried the D7 knight first and then was lost for a while since my initial idea was the right one, but the game didn't think so.

2022-07-23	Da*****	Tried a bunch of different apps before finding this one. If you're looking for fun/challenging chess puzzles without a bunch of bs/ads this is absolutely the app you want

2022-04-05	Da*****	Honestly, really fun app. If I had a brain and could play Chess I'd be able to get more from it. But don't let my deficiency stop you having fun.

2022-03-12	Ja*****	I got through the puzzle but I wish it would do sections of similar puzzles to create a form of familiarity then random puzzle. Also the casting is wrong? I could castle multiple times per game with weird casting movements
