Pros and cons of Tall Chess app for iPhone and iPad
Tall Chess app good for
It a simply clear, easy to use, non nerdy chess board to play with friends online and I like it but why ????? Have you changed the app icon from a reindeer to simple horse and why have you wiped away the slightly chaotic touch of the board? That was making the difference!!!!!
Please bring it back for five stars
Cheers

The app design is slick and awesome.
Few suggestions:
Add German language
Maybe 3D Chess
More Styles for the Chess figures.
iMessage Integration for play over iMessage with others.
App Design could be more nice.
Please add iMessage Game!!!
The only improvements I could suggest are a player ranking and the ability to send push notifications to players to remind them it is their turn. Other than that I think the design and game play are great.
A great looking version of a classically great playing game. Game centre integration is seamless.
Super clean design. Fast. Light. Doesnt crash. Dependable - no issues with push notifications.
I just wish there was an easier way to see your last few moves. Swiping across the screen doesnt always work and your thumb gets in the way.
Im loving Tall Chess. Really nice, minimal design. Turn-based online play against friends is great.
Some bad moments
I got the paying version but i found some problems, after 10 matches. i cant play a new one, i dont understand it seems over. Then, all marches i won were not registered in Game Center. Smart design, bad game.
I really liked the game but wanted to play with more than just one friend so I upgraded and paid.
Problem, it doesnt work anymore! Impossible to open the app now. I tried everything from reinstalling the app, rebooting my 5S, etc.
Nothing worked. So dont do it!
And if anyone could help me I would really appreciate.
When the game works is great, but its the third time im in the middle of a game and it stops working "must sign in with game center". Even if i log in the Game Center app it doesnt load the game. Very disappointing.
Cant make any pieces move. So far not a very good game. Tutorial might be a good update!!
Terrible and even non-stylish.
Its uncomfortable to play these chess. Uneasy mechanic, awkward colors and menu... And we have to pay for this!
Just one star. No more.
Simple and fast. If you just want to play chess this is your app.
Ill change to 5 stars once they fix the bug that makes some games to keep appearing as unfinished, and the badge stuck with that number.
