tChess Pro is the high-quality, critically acclaimed chess game with the richest features for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. It's perfect for every player:
Beginners:
Not everybody is a chess master! Most chess games are too strong or just make random mistakes at easier levels. tChess Pro has unique algorithms to simulate human opponents.
Experts:
tChess Pro has a top-tier chess engine. (Over 380 ELO points stronger than Caissa Chess.)
Enthusiasts:
tChess Pro's Analysis Mode is like having a chess master in your pocket. You can get the engine's "expert opinion" about any game or position in real-time: which side is winning, and the best sequence of moves. Just like a professional desktop chess package.
More key features:
- Perfect for 1- or 2-player games
- Strong computer opponent

Best Application for Chess
LCatenac
I have learned alot about this game by playing against computer. The settings are adjustable - from beginner level to advanced (quite advanced). Games can be saved and revisited. One of the best features is the design and program performance: Realistic and smooth. Nothing to distract from focus and enjoyment of a game of chess.
Amazing

The best chess program for smart phones l’ve ever seen. The feature of “analyze game” is very clever.
Great Game

I love this game. Easily the best chess app on the iPhone. You get more than you pay for. When I had an issue a long time ago, the developer immediately got back to me and helped me.
Solid app

Great App

This is one of the very best Chess apps. The interface is great. And it is a great teacher for those who are just learning also. It offers hints if needed, and this helps you build on your experiences and adds to your understanding of how to play this beautiful game, and how each move has the ability to make or break your game. I love the way it helps my granddaughter (who is just learning) understand how the opening is paramount to being aware of how execution early in the game. Thanks to the developers for a superior game.
Solid Chess Game

I wrote a review for this app a few years ago. The update is great. Why so few people have written reviews I find amazing....this chess app keeps getting updated and supported!!! It can handle pgns! This is a good app with a decent number of online users. I have come across many avid chess players. In addition to my previous review the new update is solid. Only draw back maybe to much animation with the bouncing ball balloon thingy when you make a move. Overall a good solid chess app with Multiplayer support is solid. This chess app is still updated & solidly supported!!!!! Many are not. Call me a fan boy but this is a solid app & you can save and transfer games big plus to analyze later.
