Fun, no ads, just chess - horrible matchmaking
This looks to be a perfect casual chess program. Worth the price to get multiple games.
However, it is almost ruined by poor matchmaking algorithms and buggy refresh of game move submissions and refresh.
About half the times I try to play a move, the chess board redraws several times and comes up blank. Same buggy move submission. I have to make a move twice most times for it to "take"
In one week, I tried starting 100 games and over 75 of them were against IL GENIO PAZZO who never moves and just resigns.
The match algorithm shouldnt let one person queue up multiple games to only leave their opponents hanging and never finish the game.
If you dont bring your own set of friends to play, expect to spend a lot of your time clearing games that will never even have three moves if you play this game for more than a day.
