Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

80/100

Chess Online: Clash of Kings is a rock-solid chess app that focuses on the competitive ladder. The matchmaking is quick and generally pits you against players of a similar skill level, which is crucial for a game like chess. I love the 'undo' feature in the single-player practice mode, which allows you to analyze your mistakes and see where a different move would have led.

The board designs are clean and not overly distracting, keeping the focus on the pieces. For those looking to improve, the tactical puzzles are a great addition. They provide quick bursts of 'find the mate' gameplay that are perfect for training your eye. It’s a no-nonsense chess experience that works well on mobile, whether you want a quick 5-minute blitz or a long, thoughtful match.

Recent changes this app would be great…
Tue Dec 14 2021 the real sal

This game use to be great… Up until a week or two ago they made changes to the game before you could play as much chess as you wanted to and now they have energy used to play each game and after your energy is depleted you have to wait to play again just another way to make you watch ads Which brings me to another case I have paid for ad free play and am still seeing ads and have reached out about the problem and it still hasn’t been solved this game over is by far the best chess app I have used but they are doing way to much for no reason other than to force ads on you if they took all that out especially since it’s a service I have paid for this app would be amazing

A scam
Wed Jun 17 2020 Casper.X.Critic

I’ve been playing chess my whole life. I’ve played against some fantastic opponents in my time but none of them have ever given me the same level of challenge as this games LEVEL 4! I lost multiple times in a row and the computer always seemed to pick the perfect counter to whatever move I was attempting to make. That is, until I decided to use an “undo” then all of the sudden the moves the computer starts marking are amateur?! Throwing its rooks and queen into squares I could easily take the, it was like handouts after countless matches of frustration wondering why somebody who’s played for so long and considers himself to be decent enough was struggling with only 40% of the maximum difficulty this app provides. Then I noticed for the full game they charge $10 and it came with unlimited hints and undos. I can’t prove anything, but I’m very confident the algorithm is meant to up the difficulty drastically until you start using hints and undos. All in an attempt to get people to pay for more or watch the ads (which by watching mid match gives you a hint or an undo). Either way I’m furious, I’m not shocked at all that this app holds a pathetic 1 star.

Great App. Simple and well executed.

This app is: helpful, clean, and responds possitively/accurately. This app is not: Battlechess 2021, new puzzles, extra frills. What you get: - Online play with a good matching system (I've never failed to find a game with over 50 in 2 months) - fair tiering. Casual players can make it to level 3 or 4 against the computer and it runs all the way up to... Well I haven't beaten 6 yet, honestly - online tier are "or higher" style. So as move up you have access to higher tiers. ...and you still have access to lower tiers. For online matches it uses a "wager" system for matches that pays 1-to-2. So you have to earn gold solving puzzles ("Mate in 'x' moves" puzzles which get more difficult as you progress) to support a win rate < 2-to-1 in online play. So it really pushes players to improve to keep playing in the online community. That's all the scoop I have for you so far. Enjoy.

Worst chess app ever!!!
Fri Mar 10 2023 D-Callahan

I never leave bad reviews. Usually I just delete a trash app and move on but this one is trash on a whole new level. Tell me why level 4 is literally impossible to beat, there are endless ads before and enter every single game, the “play online” half the time is clearly the freaking computer seeing as it take the opponent 0 seconds after every one of my moves to make their move and the fact that you have to use lives to play is absolutely ridiculous on top of not being able to hit undo nearing the end of the game if it’s a stalemate like you can on other chess apps. At the end of the game it forces you to spend coins to view the “analysis” and won’t let you view the finished game board. I’m trying to learn and hone in my chess skills but I can’t do that if it won’t even let me study the board at the end of the game! It’s extremely frustrating! Do not download this game!!!

Issue with quitters and bug
Tue Feb 14 2023 Army of G's

Hello. I love the game, design, aesthetics, etc. but I have a very big issue with a particular bug. I’m not sure how folks exploit it, but I am in a position to win several games (blitz mode) and then the opponent either minimizes the app or something, let’s time run out and then I don’t get the ELO and I don’t get the coins. Then I end up having to watch an ad after I won which is really annoying. I usually pay to support games that I love but I cannot support a game that either programmed a bug into the game or the fact that I win and I still lose anyway. I would love a reply back to explore the bug because I hate when people use unfair play just to be spiteful after they lose it’s so childish.

Add no time limits
Fri Jun 28 2024 tdmhook88

Please put in the ability to turn off the clock I got a response from the developer saying that there is no clock against the computer. I don’t want to play against the computer I want to play with my friends with an option to turn off the clocks. Some of my friends stopped playing because they are rushed in their choices when playing. The developer is not going to take that into consideration.

I bought no adds and it’s still showing them
Fri Oct 08 2021 FridayStuart

When I downloaded the app, there was add on it. No big deal, I thought, so I spent 3.99 for no adds and cool looking map. At first, there wasn’t any adds, which I was expecting for. But the next day, I went to go play some chess, and I started seeing adds. I was disappointed, I don’t usually spend money for no adds, only if the game is worth the money, which this game totally is, but when you pay money to remove adds, and they come back after a few days, is just so upsetting.

Disappointed
Sun Feb 07 2021 87fahim

I have paid for this game. There are a lot of issues. Edited: there supposed to a 1 minute time limit for each move. Many time my opponents would not do their move hours. On one occasion I remember I send bed and woke up next morning the game was as I let it yesterday. It is like joke game. 1. The game suddenly crashes and closes, so you lose everything. 2. There are few options to chat or talk with the opponent, which means you are most likely playing agains computer (who know there a real person on the other side). 3. The coin strategy is made the way that no matter what you are losing. For example, let say you bet 500 coins, if lose, you lose 500 coins; if you win, you get 750 coins (500 coins was already your), which mean you win half of what you bet. In another words, if lose two matches you have to win four matches to compensate the lost ones. 4. No customer service. 5. Very little option in general (profile picture, color, chat, not 3D....) Do not waste your time or money on this game.
