Chess trainer Fritz & Chesster 4+

I had Fritz and Chester pt. II when I was younger as a computer game and I loved it, I really hope y’all come out with chess in the black castle on the App Store bc I would love to play it. This game settled my desire to play the second one for a little tho

Thank you for your positive feedback! Soon we will present the second and third part of the program in Englisch on USB Sticks !

This game is rather outdated. It is an old pc game that had 4 parts. This is only the first one and they want $25 for it!

All the dialogue is uninterruptible, & my kid gets annoyed when she misclicks and it takes her to another screen she didnt want, or starts dialogue you just have to wait through. (Which happens a lot). Then it’s difficult to find the content (though this seems more a “feature” than a bug). The piece set is another issue. The default stays with a silly set, and can only be temporarily changed.

The first mini games are half okay and half miss too. The spider game hardly seems relevant to learning about rooks, & my daughter (who already knows how to play) didnt even realize she had played the bishop game. The knight game was quite tricky at points and and she got quite frustrated as to what counted as jumping over the different spots. Compared to how asinine the rest of the app is this part was way more tricky. The main “miss” of the games to me is that these “mini-games” are video game style for some and turn based for others. Chess is a turn based game so having a pong style or pacman quick reflexes game with hand eye coordination really misses the point to me.

In the end, The dialogue should be interruptable; there should be more settings; and the price is way too high for the amount of content.

We finally found the later games, which are better. (Tap all pieces that are attacked, for one is such a good basic board sight game). I love chessbase, but this is not to snuff. And I am a chess educator, & lifelong chessplayer. Save your money and stay away. Try chesskid adventure, which is new, or the entertaining play magnus apps.

Dear Chessfreak13576
Thanks for your feedback. This app does not cost $ 25, but only costs $ 3 per month and you only pay for as long as your child is exercising.
You are right that this program itself has been developed for a long time by chess educators, & lifelong chessplayers. No other chess program in the world has taught as many children to play chess as Fritz & Chester. The mobile application, however, was created only 3 years ago and is constantly being improved by us. Of course, all children are different and some probably like to learn chess in silence by reading the rules or listening to endless mournful music, as in the applications you recommend. Probably for these children we are not the best choice :)
Our application is created for the smallest, who do not even need to be able to read for learning. For this, funny dialogues have been thought out, explaining the basic rules and motivating to work on mistakes. But we thank you for your opinion and will try to make this app even more convenient to operate.

💯

Thank you! We are very glad, that you enjoy the game!
