  • Amazing at Practicing Chess

    This app is amazing at practicing chess, learning chess strategies and terminology. It is so well thought out from inputting your name and the name recognition, the hints, resetting previous mistakes and doing a walkthrough of mistakes. Even playing music for you if you chose it as an option. Overall phenomenal.
  • Really fantastic for beginners

    I’ve had a really great time learning and it’s absolutely been learning chess on the fast-track. I love the personalities and being able to alternate between playing AIs and playing your coach. The only caveats so far: - Isa, the first AI is actually really good at chess. She will say things like “you’re onto my tricks!” and then pull a move that absolutely destroys me. In coaching i’m already at strong intermediate but Isa still consistently wins games against me - Also, I don’t like it when Isa says “your pawn is moving all over the board.” I know it’s supposed to be a hint that i’m doing something wrong, but it feels really condescending to get passive aggressive comments from someone who claims to be just learning chess since a short time. - Towards the end Dr. Wolf will sometimes compliment my blunders Overall though really fantastic product and please keep it up

    Learning chess is something that I’ve always wanted to do. I’ve tried other apps and programs for this purpose. This is by far the best. I’ve been playing for about six weeks and actually feel like I know what I’m doing. I will likely never be a grandmaster but for now I’m pretty happy with my progress.
  • I have learned so much

    An excellent teach, training or practice game platform. Very well thought out and worth the price of subscription, by far.
  • Entertaining

    In training I find that Dr. Wolf wants me to do specific moves, but he doesn’t explain why that move is “the best move”. I need an explanation, otherwise I’m just memorizing and that’s not good.

    Since i developed havana syndrome with tinnitus, both shoulders require replacement; both knees require replacement ; my red blood cells are depleted, etc, but believe me dr wolf is a great trainer for anyone at any lever. I made a few mistakes but he is the only champion that i would ever take advice from. Play chess against dr wolf and you will have fun while learning. My days evolve around thoughts of how i might keep toe-to-toe with dr Wolfe he is truly a world champion in my life. Thank you dr. Wolfe
  • Not that great

    It’s unfortunate that you have to pay for something that’s not worth paying for. Once you are done with his “temporary” lessons, you are EXTREMELY limited. You might as well just play another chess game because you can’t do ANYTHING else unless of course you pay for it. I wouldn’t waste your time.

    I guess they want you to pay for real lessons because free version doesn’t teach you properly. I am absolute beginner and it will only show me how I lost a move but not give me a lesson on how I could have played. Not a good teaching tool. It’s free so if you have some chess skills you could run drills but horrible for beginners.
