Play Magnus - Play Chess

Chess.com

• Almost there

  I bought the app to get access to the extra training, but the the audio on the videos doesn’t work :/

• Used to be good

  Playing the free version of Magnus, but since my last update it started playing long commercials with sound after every game. It’s just too much. No fun in playing anymore. Without the commercials a very nice chess app though.

• Terrible AI

  The AI is terrible. When playing against Magnus at 29 the first few moves are okay, after that it starts making incredibly stupid mistakes and doesn’t respond to your moves. You can just take its queen and rooks without repercussions. Eventually it will just resign the game. Total disappointment, I expected more.

• terrible gameplay and commercial exploitation

  This was a nice app which I actually bought, including the levels. And now all of a sudden advertisement is added and I have to pay 5+ euros to remove the add.
  That is unfair, you can change an already sold app and then extort your users to pay more by adding adds it.
  Also, any functionality you have to pay extra, buy coins for undo's, and so on.
  Given you have chess.com with more functionality, this app cannot be recommended.

• Name Branding

  What’s in the name? Well, it’s all in the name, I guess, because you pay for the brand name. There are already chess apps available offering analysis, undo moving, giving hints, and those are open source and free to use instead of using ‘brainpower’. I very much like the MagnusTrainer, but this chess program does not add to the experience. If it really had a training mode, analysing your own strengths and weaknesses and offering the lessons, it would be a great step into integration of both the playmagnus and magnustrainer. Now, it seems to be solely for the money.
  Add: yes, Frenzy is fun indeed!

• Good app a

  Play carlsen is a good app. You can play Calsen and that’s very nice. Also you have very much other choices. But if you want some upgrades you need to pay money. And it’s not always responding. Sometimes you even can’t open the app. Verder it’s a good app and you can learn much more than other apps.

• Beautiful game, congrats to Mr Magnus!

  Your chess app is the best, not because your Norwegian, but because your an expert in the sports. Good luck staying in the zone S-GM Magnus. One day i will beat you @ chess boxing! Loser! Ha!
  Greetings from the Netherlands, we will win the next championships. Anish Siri is not the best dutch grandmaster!

• Great game but...

  Really cool app and I probably would have given the 5th star if it supported the landscape mode. This would be really handy when you play on a tablet. Other than that great job!

• Erg spannende app. Duidelijk en mooi stukken.

  Ik vind het leuk deze app te gebruiken. Werkt snel en heeft vele niveau's. Als je alleen wilt schaken is het gratis. Er zitten vele niveau's bij waar je van kunt verliezen.

• Brilliance and stupidity

  Amazing chess engine, very entertaining. Also pretty challenging.
  However, the paid movies are very pricy compared to everything else that youtube has to offer for literally nothing.
  Also, 850mb used for the app data, while i havent even downloaded half of the movies. Why cant we just stream it? I would give you 5 stars, but 3 is all i will give.
  In all fairness, the appmakers responded directly when i addressed this data issue. They are looking into a solution to improve it, maybe through streaming.

• nice app, good levels to choose from

  This is a nice app. I especially like the levels that are built in (Magnus at age N), this makes it more fun to play.
  Criticism is that all options are seperately sold add-ons, including a position evaluator, level chooser, etc. That makes it expensive compared to say the free Sockfish.
  Nevertheless, you pay more, however the levels to play are a lot of fun and the app is very stable.

• Erg leuke app voor schaakliefhebbers

  Schaken tegen een computer engine die Magnus nabootst vanaf dat hij 5 jaar oud was tot z'n huidige sterkte. Spreekt tot de verbeelding. Ik heb net gewonnen van de 7 jarige Magnus ;-)
