    I'm merely pretty terrible! I progressed pretty quickly to "strong intermediate" thanks to the guided review of mistakes, well structured lessons, and the way this app encourages consistent practice. For this, it is VERY good. My only two issues with it are 1.) There is a huge step up in difficulty from intermediate to strong intermediate - while this may just be my lack of cognitive ability, it took me 35 losses and 6 draws to get to 25 wins, and none of those with fewer than 3 undos. 2.) There are times when Dr. Wolf says "Not the move I expected," or "Not your best move," and it would be very helpful to be able to know what the correct move was. There are other times when I simply want to know WHY - e.g.: on what premise or lesson is he leaning for a particular suggestion? It would also be very helpful to review my wins. How did I checkmate in 10 moves on strong intermediate TWICE? Why did those times feel so easy when he's constantly wiping the board with me?! Devs: Kudos on such an entertaining and educational platform! Keep going!

    Awesome, great ! Love the different degrees of experience one goes through. Id suggest 5 wins per level to advance…even if you are a rated player…doesn’t hurt to play 5 games at any level. Just seems like you are accomplishing something

    I’m not even past the fundamentals and talking to myself about becoming a Grand Master! Never thought at age 71 I could learn even the basics! I love this so much. Thanks for giving me a fun, addicting way to exercise my brain! This app is perfect!! I enjoy playing the chapters over and over! Good job!
  • Love it!

    I started out playing on another chess app but I wanted something closer to the real experience of playing with a teacher. This is an excellent version. You feel you’re being coached, given encouragement, and you have someone who is pointing out what’s happening as the game progresses. I’ve been using it for about a month and so far really enjoying it.

    This game is fun it help kids (like me) how to play chess. I already knew how to play chess when I started using this game but it helped me learn moves that my opponents can use while playing against me. Of course I knew they could do this but, I have not seen anyone use this strategy before. I think of myself as a good chess player. I play with my dad a lot, and this game might help me beat him for once in my life.

    I am not sure how I feel about the bot intentionally leaving a free piece to capture or saying that they left it to take, especially on beginner level. It is overall a good learning experience, but I would like it to be more of analysis on details rather than listening to statistics, how many minutes, I’ve played, and certain moves are placed. It’s difficult to even pin any pieces, or the king, since the bot automatically reacts to the move.
  • I’m really enjoying this app.

    I learn how to play chess when I was young but never really developed my game. It app is teaching me at my own pace and I feel like I’m becoming a stronger player.
