I wish I could give 4.5 stars Chess King apps are always high quality but most of them have two noticeable flaws (sometimes they matter, sometimes not) 1) There are no explanations on the puzzle solutions 2) Puzzles with multiple lines you can only "analyze" the last one after you complete it. If you don't understand the first line opponent played you'd better have an amazing memory or be taking notes. Other than that, amazing and high quality app. I've purchased about 10 of them and counting!

This is a phenomenal app for any aspiring chess player. The fact that it has a theoretical explanation plus practical exercises from hand picked games is enough to give it high praise. Get it.

I'm a beginner chess player with some experience over 30 years ago. The problems are great. My only issue is some of the problems are not correct, mate in 2 but there was more than one way to get mate in 2 but it wouldn't let me choose anything other than what it thought. I even had 1 problem that was mate in 2 but there was mate in 1. I'm gonna keep playing because this app will still make me a much better chess player

Best app for puzzles and it's more fun as they make it competitive giving us rating for every puzzle we solve and negative if we solve wrong
