Reviews

Works great so far...

This is a database of unannotated master games. The app pretty much works as described and I intend to use this regularly. While I identify gaps below - please be assured that the app as it stands is quite awesome... Just try it. Gaps 1. It is unknown what games are part of the database. If it is like Chessbase and tries to include all played games in internationally recognized events - what's the last year for which games are included? 2. Any database is only as good as how frequently it is kept up to date. Please add a PGN import facility to import new games. Alternatively, please add a TWIC (this week in chess) download so the database can be current. 3. As with any large database, there will be games that I like and want to review again. Please add the ability to create and maintain named collections within the database.


Very good app

This is a great app. I play this when I have down time. I have won one once but it’s making me better. Great job.
