User Reviews on Chess Tactics Art (1400-1600)

Looking for more information? Read a comprehensive review of Chess Tactics Art (1400-1600) below:

After going through about half the contents of this app, so many things suddenly started to click. They give you a basic conceptual tactic and take you through many variations/examples of that tactic until it solidifies. Our online rating, which has been stagnant for about a year, has gone up 200 points after engaging in the puzzles provided by this app (and we’ve only had this app for less than a couple of weeks!) our Puzzle Rush score on Chess. Com has also shot up from an average of 12 to a 19-21 average. We highly suggest this tactics trainer!


Trying to purchase upgrade only sends you to a window that says "Loading" for ten minutes.


We’ve played through multiple tactical and strategy apps for chess, but this is by far the best. Great app!


We really am impressed by this company. They seem to have chess problems for every ability. The package has more than 1000 problems and even if they seem on the easy side, some themes were new to us while others bear repeating until they’re automatic. The amount of problems gives this effect as you see the same theme over and over again. Then on to the next one. Highly recommended.


CT-Arts is the greatest set of chess tactics problem ever assembled. Now it’s available on iPhone. If you want to increase your chess rating this is the single most effective tool to do that!! Very instructive. Really AMAZING!!!!


Very helpful for all levels of chess playing.


We’re very impressed with this app. The approach is systematic, there is a good blend of theory and practice. The animations and touch options are superb. Five stars hands down.


While the original is a classic, this version for beginners is an excellent addition to the catalog. Great product. Nothing compares on iOS.


After reaching chapter eight and discovering about 12 mistakes, we decided to give up on this App. The problem is some of the puzzles seem to be based on a particular moment of a game when a player got lucky and their opponent blundered,plus traps,what we like to call "hope chess",You hope your opponent takes the bait… You can not base puzzles on traps! There must be precise answers. To a chess nut,there is nothing worse than loosing faith in a chess puzzle book or program because in the back of your mind you’re wondering if your skills are weakening or you’re wasting your time because the solution to the puzzle is wrong. Sadly,even the App’s own engine refutes the answers!


Great app! Can’t wait for CT-ART 4 to show up!!!


Hope to see more titles from this company. Chess Art 4 and 5 would be great as well. All their apps are great for chess improvement.


Phenomenal chess trainer. CTArt has everything you need.
