Fantastic Training Software – Chessimo 2.0 Review

I’ve been using this program since it was called Personal Chess Trainer, and I absolutely love it. The units start out at a very easy level, like the easy problems in Puzzle Rush on chess.com, but they gradually become more complex, until they are satisfying to solve for someone at my level (2200 USCF, ~2300 Blitz on chess.com). And like Puzzle Rush, it’s pleasantly addictive. I realize that $15 is a bit more than the average app, but considering the wealth of content you get for the price, it’s a steal. I heartily recommend it to my students and to anyone else who is serious about getting better at chess. If you’re a fan of chess improvement books, consider this to be your one-stop app for doing a version of Axel Smith and Hans Tikkanen’s “Woodpecker Method.”
