The app that started it all for me – Chess ∙ Review

When I was 14 just entering high school I saw a friend of mine playing this game in between classes and was transfixed. I was always curious how to play chess so I decide to download it. I started out on easy and googled the basic rules. I played this app every day for a long time. It has its faults for sure as some have pointed out. It will play random openings then defend well at mid range-high levels, and isn’t the best chess app out there (that’s would be chess.com or lichess). Despite that, this app has been solid for a long time. The look, feel, and relaxing music have barely changed. I learned how to play on this app and went from a sub 800 player to a 1700 player today and I’ve played online every day for almost a decade now. It’s a decent chess app and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to learn.
