Chessplode

Like the concept, but I feel like the AI is extremely hard to beat. I don’t know if I am just bad (XD) or just the AI needs to be able to be toned down. But this does make it ragingly fun game. I would like, like others a normal chess mode, (both for my self esteem :P and ) cause this seems to be more polished than other chess apps. Also add in other chess moves other than castling such as empesant (idk how to spell it - the one where a pawn can kill another pawn next to it in the middle lanes - may be a bit different to chessplode but it’s kinda annoying this function isn’t in the game) Overall I like the ability to create and play levels. I like how you can decimate your enemy’s forces with a single semi-planned move. Gooooood Game :D

This game has all the makings of a great game, and thanks to developer response to feedback, it has become a personal favorite. The spin on traditional chess is a good one, requiring the player to rethink every move based on the potentially explosive outcome. The UX design is clean and crisp and the UI is intuitive. Two of my three big problems which led me to review this game at 4 stars initially and eventually led to frustration and a 2-star review have been fixed! First, the developer has included more basic puzzles in the update. The new puzzles are creative and give new life and challenge to the game. Second, the AI was flawed. In a previous release, the AI would think about moves forever. The developer has stated that this issue has been fixed and I have not run into it yet since. Finally, the developer has not yet filtered user-created content to remove overly-similar puzzles, but says that this is in the works. This game started out with potential to be a truly great strategy puzzle game, and with this update it has become one of my favorite apps. Good work and thanks for listening to feedback!

I just STARTED chess and it’s INSANELY HARD FOR ME ON THE EASY LEVEL + FIRST LEVELS OF GAME please make a even EASIER mode so I can win also I don’t see the point of making our own level I check it out looked boring( not to boring still bit fun ) ideas: new titles Like... off the bat I can name... lava ( land on or go past u lose ) ice ( can’t go on if click ice and stuff u go to the closest space ahead ) bounce ( player when on and has turn can jump over one chess piece ♟) paint gun ( Land on it and ur chess piece explodes while every chess piece in Column and row also explodes ) that’s all my ideas otherwise it’s a great game love the concept 😛🙃🙂

I enjoy chess as much as the next guy, but when you have beaten the computer it will “lag” and not work. If I were to get done to about 6 moves from a check mate the game would either: lag and be stuck on thinking, end the game and saying draw no more moves can be made, or the game will freeze. Just program defeat into this game and I will not complain. I really do enjoy this new type of strategic play style.

I came across this game while browsing the App Store and immediately knew I would like it when I heard its concept. It takes chess to a new kind of difficulty that requires a different type of strategy to win. This is a great chess game for anyone who likes playing chess but wants a new challenge. One thing I wish this game had was the ability to play with others via local multiplayer, but otherwise, it's great!
