Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
For this game, you are using pieces from a game of Chess to solve puzzles. The gameplay is simple: Use Knight to eliminate enemies with an amount of moves, and then go to the Queen. Basic strategy with puzzles that become increasingly difficult over time. Helps train your brain and is worth playing.
Learn chess pieces and their moves. Good strategy game, fun to play.
We enjoy the game very well, but find the frequency of inter-level ads bothersome. Also, of late the ads have been ignoring our mute setting, causing unwanted sound to be played.
Pretty neat puzzle game, wish you could speed up animations though and would be nice to know what piece will take when multiple captures are possible. We'd say some of the puzzles are fairly challenging even as a 2000 rated player like ourselves.
To be honest, what we love most about this game is that it breaks down the rules of movement in chess in digestible portions. As a kid we loved chess but no other kids we knew played. This isn't just a game of knights, but introduces pawn, bishop, rook etc movement. We haven't gotten far enough to know of all pieces are introduced but it's still a nice and easy introduction regardless. Great graphics for engaging children.
So far we've really enjoyed this game. It's fun to see chess pieces actually work the way they do in chess. Our only real complaint is the advertisements. We find them annoying and intrusive and would gladly pay to have an ad free version.
Friendly, easy pace. We're becoming comfortable with the movement of the knight and its purpose on the board. When we got stuck and could not proceed to the next level, a note to dobsoft and they answered and helped us very quickly. Watch a few commercials to "pay" and play on! A great teaching tool for the young (and old) to learn an important thinking game.
We like this app to train knight movements. We like playing chess and will keep this app on our phone for additional knight practice. BUT. Needs an option to allow faster movement of the knight. Sometimes chess is a fast game and we don't have the patience to wait around for the knight to prance around on his horsey to finish making his move. Just hurry up and get to your destination. It shouldn't take 30 seconds to make 3 moves because of animations. But don't get us wrong. We like the animations and we think it adds an aspect to the game that makes it fun. But just needs a speed option for when we want to play fast.
Game is pretty cool, but it needs fixing. The ads are annoying and on top of that it takes half an hour to get 1 life. Which is what makes us not want to play it. And in order to unlock a new world you have to get 3 stars on EVERY LEVEL which is annoying because there's always the one level in every world that you just can't get 3 stars on. Game has potential but needs some work.
Too ez we'd rather play chess our elo is 1530 would 0 star if we could.
It's OK but there are ALOT more ways it can be improved. If you would want a game like this, we would just get chess because it is just the same thing.
We played 5 minutes of it and got bored the puzzles are not hard it is just not fun.
