    Pure Chess is both an excellent title for the solo player and a disappointment for those who want to play the game online.

    The rendering of the chess pieces is superb. [June 2014, p.89]

    Beyond the graphical environments and gameplay, Pure Chess is a compelling title, offering plenty of options, as well as tutorials for beginner players. However, its asynchronous online mode harms the experience of playing with an opponent at a distance, which hampers the game’s appeal to those interested in online chess matches.
