Castling
Gretta Simon

I will start to castle, and the app kicks me out. Castling is my main move, and it makes it much harder for me. Don’t get me wrong, I love a challenge, but I’m annoyed since this happens ALL the time!!


Small suggestion
Good chess player

I love this app a great deal, but I think it would be more popular if you could play tournaments on fast chess.


Awesome App

I’ve been playing chess on this app to practice for tournaments or for fun. This app is very kid friendly and safe. Most of the time I enjoy playing chess on this game. Overall, this app is pretty good. However the app has some glitches that need to be fixed. Glitches: 1.) One of the most annoying glitches is when for some reasons ChessKid randomly decides to not let you move when it’s your turn. The only way to stop this glitch is to offer a draw which of course no one wants to do when your winning 2.) One time I was playing chess on the app when my opponent had 20 seconds left and obviously I could win. However when they were down to their 15th second, the app just said I HAD LOST and had no seconds left when it was my opponents turn!? ChessKid is a great app but this needs to be fixed!

Does not support friends
Settler Number 3

Downloaded this so my kids could play each other and there is no way for them to add each other as friends. I suspect I have to log into the website from a computer to connect them but it’s unclear and too much work. I’ll keep looking elsewhere.


Terrible Game
RynJos

Whenever I would beat a bot, it said it was a draw, and I also had to delete some very fun games from my iPad before I could play without it lagging and kicking me out. Very boring, the bots were really easy to beat, an unfair.
