Watch every game in its entirety or pause mid game and play against this apps built in chess engine. Each game is showcased on a beautiful customizable board. You can also keep track of your favorite games by ranking them with 1 to 4 stars. There is even an option to email the games to yourself or friends.
As a bonus, this app comes with samples from ten of the other greatest chess players the world has ever seen. Find out what makes these players tick and sharpen your skills as you learn from the masters. You should purchase Bobby Fischer's Complete Library today.
They take your money knowing that the app is old and will not load on any iOS newer than iOS 5. You pay and can’t even load it. The developers can’t be contacted either.
This app is pretty neat, but it lacks annotations so unless you are able to determine on your own whether a move is poor, good, or brilliant you will be on your own. The app is worth the small cost just to have something cool to do when you are not able to get online. However, with the internet it's easy to get a hold of the moves to any of these games for free. Annotations would make the apps in this series unique and really valuable.
This app could easily get a 5 star from me if it didnt 1. Run so slow and 2. the board didnt glitch when it did run. Do not get this app until further updates have been applied.
The update did not make the app load. Developer should caution 3G users not to download it. I'm still out $1.99 for a non-functional app. Apple, please take note.
Excellent app for Ipad _- There was a bit of confusion at beginning . But artist replied quickly and I am very satisfied . I give it a good recommendation for serious players to use.
I deleted this before because the buttons would not work. I just reinstalled it today after the update on my iPad 3 and the button to go back to the index of games does not work. ALL buttons are TINY, you need a stylus to hit them IF they even work when you hit them that is. Also, I do not see any difference with the "retina" version on my iPad 3. Do not recommend. Deleted again.
UI is broken...you need to make a smoother transition between autoplay and manual. Many games are incomplete.
The only way to see a move list is buy sending yourself the game in email. No means to move back and forth within the game except by using the move indicators at the bottom, but you do not know what move number you are going to. Potential to be a good app but they need to remove some of the useless icons at the top of the game and add a move list that you can select and return the game to any point. Not very useful for study because of this. I will relate to a higher mark if they make this improvement.
