Comments on Chu shogi for Android

★★★★☆ Brendan C. · May 5, 2021

A bit barebone but pretty good. There's quite a bit of room for improvement. Pros: It's chu shogi! They got the rules right and the pieces move correctly. Cons: There are no dots on the board to show where the promotion zones are, makes it a bit hard to visualize things. There aren't many AI difficulty settings, and none of them are very hard. No online play either. Some way to learn how the pieces move would be nice, but the only instructions just link to the chu shogi Wikipedia page.

★★★★★ Daniel Wang · Nov 20, 2021

It's good! It's the only Chu Shogi app out there. That being said, I'd pay to remove ads. Update; when checking your Lion, the AI tends to make the illegal move of repeating past board states. This makes it quite tedious to use your Lion, since the responsibility of breaking perpetual Lion check is on the Lion player, not the checker.

Hi boy I like it but it can be so better if you replace the Japanese pieces mark with standard pieces mark like chess I suggest you that make an app for dai shogi thank

The thing is that I can get into the app but when I press the button "play chu-shogi" the game just crashes. Please fix, it would make me happy.🙂
