I was looking for a simple chess game that I can play on my Switch. The board view is clear in my opinion and moving pieces is convenient via touchscreen. I started to play on the easiest difficulty and it was too easy as I expected. However, increasing the difficulty one game after another, I finally realized that even the hardest setting was way too easy to beat. I hope the developers are reading this review and update the difficulty considerably, and perhaps add more than 4 tiers of difficulty. My rating is about 1800 give or take, so maybe the game would remain challenging for beginners for awhile. But, as decent engines are relatively easy to design nowadays, I hope that the developers will upgrade their engine to make the AI opponent more challenging to attract a wider range of players.

    Is it just me or is the software a bit glitchy!?
    When there's only two kings on the game for example the game still goes on even though the kings can't attack each other and you have to quit or how come a pawn can't kill a king!?I bought this game when it was on sale for 1.99 on the eShop expecting a simple chess game but from my experience rounds take a bit to long than expected,a few glitches and the ability to change pawns and board is kinda useless!
    How did the developers somehow ruin chess,no wonder why it was on sale!
