Back when fliphones were a thing, I had one where chess was a pre-installed game with 3 difficulty levels: easy, normal and hard. Somehow I played it so often, I eventually learned how to beat the hardest AI. Nowadays I don't even come close to how good I used to be but the fact that this game has challenges and different difficulty levels I can see myself giving this a shot.
I love chess. Obviously there's plenty of free online versions, but this looks like it has a lot of cool features and it does look very nice. I'll probably claim it for that reason.
I hear and I obey! Now I have Chess Ultra in my library. So it's time to start start my career as a chess player. If that doesn't go my way, I will in any case continue to be one of your loyal fans... in Sweden! 💕
I'd been putting chess games on PCs since the 90s. I had one that had so many different board and piece styles. Good times. I'm usually checkmated in 5 moves though. Now what I'd love to see is a GO game on PC, because I want to learn that.
There is only one problem. You can't save and reload. Games are shown as saved, but nothing happens when you click on them. Therefore it is unplayable for me. (Free Epic Version)
It does work, it launched Steam VR as soon as you start the game, even if you don't have VR CONNECTED. If you have steam VR installed through steam, then the game will launch it even when starting the game through the Epic version.
@@waynestuart2755 On the store page it states: With full Oculus Rift and HTC Vive support. But no mention of quest 2. I don't know if quest 2 supports everything that rift does as I have never had a quest to try out.
Pretty disappointed by the jerkiness of the camera movement, This is not a demanding game, graphically, and should run smooth as butter with a 3080ti. But its incredibly jerky, I hope they will fix this, but seeing how old the game is, I doubt it
I have a problem. This game doesn't work in the online. I see message "error! connection filed" every time when i open liderboard or play with opponent in the internet. My connection is perfect actualy, but this game not see the internet connection. Why? (my country is Ukraine)
@@ShouldYouPlayIt i was playing the tutorial,it probably has nothing to do with the online functions, but i will wait for the game to update a few times.
Think I'll stick with my physical copy
Are you sure you wouldn't rather go with the subscription version?
Only $8.99 a month for unlimited chess action 😂
They made a physical copy?! 😱
Why not both?😂😂😂
@@ScaryRevenant whoooooosh

This brings me back to the old days playing Battle Chess and Chessmaster, which had to be loaded with floppy disks. Damn I'm getting old😀

I'm a big fan of chess, look forward to claim it !!🤩🤩
Huge fan too, I want him to sign my chest.

Last year my wife bought me GO for my birthday. I haven’t played it yet 😂 but it’s still on my to do list
Most affordable way to play with the isle of Lewis chess board. So if you are a Harry Potter fan, this is a good digital option.
Love chess. Game makes me mad but still like it😂
Thanks guys
Good game, but I met one problem. In the free version (epic version) I can't play with online opponent

On the topic of chess, I think Micheal (is that correct spelling?) looks like GM Robert Hess.
Nice visuals, seems really fun!! Thanks for the amazing review as always guys!! Enjoy your Sunday!!
It reminds me of Window Vista Chess
I came here to find out if out can learn to play chess with this game. Thanks for the answer.
Yes you can!
So do you get advanced copies of these game from Epic so that you can do these reviews?
Nope, we buy them

Too many people playing now on Epic, it should work later
Hi!
The blurb on the Epic store does indeed claim this features VR, but I can find nowhere in the settings to activate it. Disappointing.
It does work, it launched Steam VR as soon as you start the game, even if you don't have VR CONNECTED. If you have steam VR installed through steam, then the game will launch it even when starting the game through the Epic version.
@@rdalcroft3934 Well, not working for me. Quest 2 on, Quest link running, Steam VR running: Title screen briefly flashes up, then blank. Oh well.
@@waynestuart2755 On the store page it states: With full Oculus Rift and HTC Vive support. But no mention of quest 2.
I don't know if quest 2 supports everything that rift does as I have never had a quest to try out.
I have Steam/Vive HTC and though Steam VR launched and it said something was starting, it never did. Maybe I need to restart my computer?

Its was slow for us online, due to problematic start with too many people trying, so maybe thats the case for you as well?
how the hell am i move the pawns?
the multiplayer doesnt work for me
It is problematic, since too many people trying to play, we advise to try again later
Does this app have a strong online community?
It comes and goes
I have a problem. This game doesn't work in the online. I see message "error! connection filed" every time when i open liderboard or play with opponent in the internet. My connection is perfect actualy, but this game not see the internet connection. Why? (my country is Ukraine)
Ot might be due to too many people trying at once, we advice you to try again later
The servers are overloaded now, try again a little later and here's our guide: th-cam.com/video/n1VG2aJZ2ik/w-d-xo.html
chess can be so frustrating
the game stutters and has microfreezes while the msi afterburner shows that both gpu and cpu are barely used, anyone knows how to fix it?
yes, we had the same problem while trying to play online, probably servers are overloaded, we advice to wait few more days and try again.
