As a beginner, this app has opened up the game of chess for me. I'm a slow learner. Dr. Wolf is less about memorizing moves, and more about understanding them. Even the most elementary lessons are illuminated to spark understanding. Stalemate is a mistake I have made many times, just as an example this app has showed me how to box in the opponent's king safely. Highly recommend!

A most wonderful app for learning the art and strategy of chess. And it's a lot of fun as well. Very enjoyable as well as educational. But I give it only 4 stars because it doesn't give the player an official chess rating, it just says beginner, intermediate, advanced, etc. If you change it to offer a rating system, I'll give it 5 stars. Thanks in advance.

Going through all the different training scenarios was a bit tedious but it made me want to play more and immediately try out what I learned. it's a simple app but very well done and sometimes less is more. No stupid pop-up ads or prompts telling you to sign up for the "premium" experience. I love it and have been playing every day!
