Comments on Bughouse Chess for Android

★★★★★ Omg so many bad reviews but don't let them bother you I will just tell the bugs you need to fix! Edit:There are no bugs, but it needs some improvement like Smooth Animations Also Make the (TROOPS) visible please I can't tell if there a rook or a pawn

★★★★★ I have yet to find a chess app that gave chess a nice twist. Sure, there is 3 way chess, but that changes the structure of the board and cannot be replicated out of the app. This chess app finds a new, unique perspective on the game. Even out of game, this game mode can be played in real life. This provided countless hours of a new way to play chess. If you thought you found all the tricks in chess, this app will challenge you go come up with new strategies. But fo real, change that queen king model. #BlueJIsBetterForThePurposeOfTheClass

★★☆☆☆ It's extremely glitchy when it comes to moving pieces.

★★☆☆☆ Once the 1st move made no other pieces can be played on either sides

★★☆☆☆ The AI is very bad. I found a guaranteed win strategy that works with intermediate AI that relies on a bug house trap that the AI ALWAYS falls for. Very boring games. Most games are like this: nf3, d5, ne3, f6 or d4. F6 yields pawn on f7#.
