i dont like it cause the game plays by itself
Dan Vanderpriem
Graphics are awful. Hard to tell pieces apart. Why was it developed like this? Hard on the eyes. Hard to click and drag with a track pad. Should allow clicking piece and then clicking spot to move it to.
Leroy Salas
this is stupid...
Bill Overholt
poor graphics. too easy
Meteorrider N8
It sucked when i tried to take a piece it wouldn`t let me
Robert Storm
I couldn't tell what piece was what. Couldn't see what was moved. OMG I'll pass.
J- Columbus
Graphics are dull and boring. Also, will not end game at checkmate.
enmanuel gonzalez
so basic... not online... looks terrible
Osten Loo
Too easy
David Shafe'
can't undo moves, AI repeats moves indefinitely when inconvenient for it. Not a useful tool to improve your game.
sai kiran
it's good

Chess for human begin
Zachary Burr
The AI is horrendous (I beat the medium one with the 4 turn win) but playing against real people is decent.

Matthew Sills

Prs722
I can Scholars mate the medium Al every time its far too easy to win
Jaden Reeler
I KEEP LOSING LOL!!! nah I love it. I just suck at it
Me Man
dont let you move a piece
Baba Booey
It's not very interctive friendly with the mousepad...Ir's also very bland and a bit confusing with the 3 only colors, black, white and gray...When u make a move, the opponent makes his move so fast sometimes you can't tell what piece the opponent has moved, it's that fast!
Allan Michael
I found this game to be extremely easy. I really did not offer much of a challenge. However it was a nice way to waste a little time.
Julian Grande
You suck
Andy Palmer
Couldnt castle
Wraithwrecker _
doesnt let queens move diagonally. :\ this is clearly a flaw that needs fixing.
Daniel Nevins
The design is almost blinding. It's very distracting.
Graham Warnock
it's way too easy. the computer is willing to sacrifice their queen for a pawn on the hardest difficulty
Ryan Rohn
Lots of bugs. AI is so quick you often don't see what the move was
tony stark
terrible
Zebra Skimmers
Hard to control with a simple one press pad laptop. No undo, or command line interface. Like the small footprint though. Keep working on it.
Rakesh Deshpande
awesome
Prashant Singh
The game has no sense of strategy, even with the highest AI level
Trevor McDonald
i did not play a game a chess and the chess pieces are sqaures

not good
Upul Gunawardana
Fun (lighting) but easy to beat
Jeffrey Hilbert
it would be nice if u cud change how pieces looked
Crin Stir
Ugh, worst chees app ever.
Scott Oler
It was good when it worked, now the images are replaced with a box
jeffrey harkness
too easy. beginners only
Solo Sopranoh
theres no sign for each piece...a letter a mark or anything would be better than just a bunch of []
Dylan Webb
hard to see the pieces for the glow
Caridad Chelala
love as i do
Ryan Halliday
Claims the game is stalemate when its clearly not, and the AI was quite easy... Relatively good other than those points
April Gaskin
I want to get rid of it where is the delete button i cant find it

Pieces don't move as they should, for example my Queen couldn't move more than one line square (the Queen can move in all directions with the length of the Tower), which it should have. The AI is boring and dull. Not only that but its no fun to play with. I'm a chess lover, and the creators of this chess game have no idea what chess is. You can see that by the "cool" design (which is horrible and distractive) they are trying to achieve, instead of a good chess game for Chrome.
Richard Pearson
Excellent Graphics. Works well with the computer processor chip. But I had no control over the time. I like to play 5 min games. Blitz chess. Also, soar losers tend to leave the game running without making a move. I beat a player and took his offer to play another game, after I made my move, he never made his. It stay up for two days waiting for him to move.
Rob McColley
I like the Undo feature. Many chess games have it. This one lacks it. Graphics are pong-era bad.
Larry Dungan
I like that this is free, just wish we could see captured pieces and I could replay to see what opponent just did. Thanks for creating a game and letting it go for free!
Jack Bjelland
Doesnt allow castling, and all difficulties seem the same.
PremR Sahu
Good and it is what it says - i.e Highest is its Medium level.. It needs to come up some more higher levels, to make it more interesting..
Alexander Bisset
Barely implements the rules. AI at its strongest could be beaten by a 400-600 rated child, constantly swaps pieces regardless of advantage. No indication of last move and as AI moves instantaneously it can take a second or two just to work out what it moved.
Davide Vitali
Just for casual players as the AI is extremely weak, even at maximum level. It permits castling out of check, which is an ILLEGAL move! Black pieces over black squares are kinda hard to recognize...
