Just great

I’ve been playing this game for years now. Have tried other games, they just annoy me. This game is simple, it works well, and is great.
I use it to play random opponents - this uses the scoring system.
I also use it to play one friend of mine, daily, who I don’t get to see very often. In addition to being quite competitive with each other, we also use the message feature to comment on moves and for a general hello.
Very good app. Thanks.

Play across the globe- fantastic

From the UK I constantly have a game running with my son in New Zealand, this keeps contact, I know he is OK without constantly contacting him, the chat facility allows us to pass urgent family messages quick time as to be honest we are both addicted to this fantastic app. Developers please do not change a thing, this app works very well.

Really good, however..

Whilst this is a fantastic app, I do believe that for ranked matches the Plan Moves function should be taken out. It’s a bit overpowered considering you have 5 days to reply. Also the 5 days should be reduced.

Other than that it’s a really great app, and the ranking system works perfectly :)
