I recently started playing this game, and while I was excited about its concept, my experience has been disappointing due to the following issues: Frequent Ads: Every time a new opponent appears or I make progress, annoying ads pop up. This constant interruption breaks the flow and ruins the gaming experience. Poor Gameplay: Even without the ads, the gameplay feels poorly designed and lacks depth. It feels like more focus was placed on ad placement than creating an enjoyable experience.

Chess Universe is an exceptional game that offers a unique and challenging experience for anyone looking to sharpen their mental abilities. The game combines strategy, patience, and forward-thinking, making it an excellent tool for testing and improving cognitive skills. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player, the complexity of chess pushes you to think several moves ahead, requiring both critical thinking and creativity.

I love the game. Appreciate that I can see myself improving. However, there's a lot of times it feels like the AI is cheating because it will force you into a threefold repetition loss because it is about to lose... and it doesn't get penalized for doing its own threefold repetition first. If it is a loss for me, it should be a loss for the AI.

Hi. Threefold repetition does not result in a loss. The result of such a match is a draw. If that is not the case, please write to [email protected] with more details about the issue. Best regards.
