Update in response to devs reply. 'Practice level makes random moves and does not learn player moves', I'm afraid you are wrong, your AI is more clever than you think. If you defeat the AI the same way several times, it learns and figures out how to combat your winning strategy.. You see, I'm not trying to learn how to be a good chess player, I just like taking my horse out, obliterating the AI players, then trapping the king.. The AI lets you win a few times, then it turns into a good player.

We're sorry you feel this way. Practice level makes random moves and does not learn player moves. Please turn on Tutor in Options to help make things easier and aid learning. It will recommend a good piece to move but not where to move it to. Hint (? on Menu) will suggest the entire move. Undo + Review Game + other features in Options can also help

This superb app is not just the best chess app out there -- believe me, I've tried over a dozen of them -- it's a major reason why I stay on Android. Nobody is better than AI Factory. The gameplay is a pleasure, with a pleasant environment customizable to a multitude of different appearances including my favorite, a red/amber checkerboard and elegantly simple black and white icon pieces, and allow single, partner, or internet human opponent play. Casual mode is great for learning, with a tutor available to suggest logical or even deeply brilliant moves, as well as to show pieces in danger, allow unlimited "take-it-back" undoing of moves. The CPU can operate at a 1-10 level of difficulty to provide you incrementally more challenging gameplay as you learn. A beautifully designed and marvelous app that's not just a great way to learn the game, but a work of art!

While I love the game (this is why I got the paid version), the multiplayer part is a total disappointment. It lacks the necessary functionality to make it useful. 1. Chat is not existent. 2. Proposing remi surrender etc. is not existent. 3. There are no time limits, which allows many players to avoid losing the game by simply abandoning it. As stupid such behaviour sounds, it is surprisingly prevalent. 4. There is no ranking of the players, and it is not possible to choose the ELO rating of your opponents. This leads to playing mostly with very inexperienced players (basic statistic), but I do not think such uneven matches are enjoyable for neither of the sides. 5. No basic statistic, like games, played, wins, loses, timeouts. The ranking is not at all implemented. As a start ELO ranking, I think the PRO mode can be used as some type of base for comparison.
