I really enjoy the new Newspaper (Mérida) piece set — it’s crisp and easy to see, especially on the light‑gray board. I also appreciate the app’s clean and intuitive design without unnecessary complexity.

Chess 2026 is by far the best compared to other offline chess programs. Good price, excellent graphics, and a very well‑designed game engine. Simply a top‑tier application for chess players of any age.Write a review
