Reviews for "Easy Chess"

Well, the engine tried the scotch game, and blundered his queen. 10/10.

Ran pretty good and was a solid chess game really good programming made this challenging excellent

Pretty good engine. I play a lot of recreational chess but I also enjoy learning theory on it and I study it pretty seriously too. To give you an idea of my rating and the player pool i am in; on Lichess i have about a 1050 (give or take a little) classical rating and i can beat stockfish level 3 with a fair amount of thinking. Anyway I beat this engine pretty easily but it still required some thought each move. It was by no means an effortless win. I would rate this engine at a very good skill-level for the occasional chess player to be able to enjoy playing against and even win a few games. Good job on this one i will add it to my favorites. Although i do not like the Game record. it should record in the standard algebraic notation. None the less i still enjoyed it. 4.5 man. p.s. I really like how the pieces are drawn too lol they are cool.

Hey, an engine rated around my skill level! But I can still just barely beat it.

I like the AI. If there is 'one difficulty setting' it needs to be challenging enough for the average person without being brutal and allowing for a lower level player to win without being discouraged and giving up. The only thing I would change is multiple difficulty settings, and maybe some flashier graphics, if that is your thing.

To the critics (yes, I know the post was from 2014) : Retarded chess? This is fine, for a game with one setting. I can easily beat the AI; however, just because you can beat the AI doesn't mean that everyone else has your preference, and calling it 'retarded chess' just because you can beat it without effort does not mean everyone else can, and it is a testament to your own douchebaggery, not the creator of the game. You can beat the AI? So what? Can you write your own AI that will outperform this one? Maybe the creator will improve on the AI, then again, if the only audience he is going to cater to is a small handful of overly critical douche canoes, he might say why bother?
