HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (11 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Perfect quick gameplay

Want to game for a minute or an hour? This is one of those rare, perfect gaming apps that appeals to both. No ads, simple gameplay, effortless to pick up and play a few levels.

★★★★★Jun 11, 2022
Fantastic

Just the game I didn’t realize I needed to be playing.

★★★★★Apr 7, 2022
Won’t open

GetsStuck on the screen where it asked are you an expert chess player: yes or no. Yes or no buttons are half off the screen. And you cannot press them so the game is just stuck.

★★★★★Apr 28, 2021
Loved it (update)

It’s like lichess atomic chess but way more different. Def a strange game

★★★★★Apr 25, 2021
Great however...

Sometimes your not put in check when you should be like when my king is next to an enemy rook or then I’ll put the king in check with a rook and have a knight protect it and the king will take it anyways despite that putting it in check? Idk other than that it’s pretty fun

★★★★★Jan 28, 2021
EXCELLENT CHESS CHECK-UP

This app is proving to be a superb source for learning chess or improving one’s chess game. I’ve been playing chess, on and off, for about 65 years. Highly recommend.

Store description

Chessplode is modern chess for everyone, it makes chess fun even if you're bad ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, one simply move... can change all game. -- THE MODERN RULE -- Chessplode is pretty much like chess with a really BIG twist... - CAPTURE a piece and everything in the same LINE and COLUMN will EXPLODE... - But if a KING is in that LINE or COLUMN it will be a really *boring* chess capture (no explosions) -- THINK DIFF... *DISTINCT* -- This rule is pretty tricky, in regular chess you need to defend your KING, but in Chessplode it can save your pieces. Remember, you can't capture some pieces because you could get check. Sometimes you will checkmate capturing a piece that explodes. And other you will be afraid of having several pieces in the same line or column...(POP!) -- FRIENDS (Who love chess) REVIEW -- They find Chessplode a great challenge and love how they need to change the old way of thinking even if they are winning... a bad move and they will run out of pieces. -- FRIENDS (Who *meh* chess) REVIEW -- Chess + Explosions... you got my attention. Some of these friends were casual chess players and others didn't really feel the attraction for chess. Both find Chessplode a really fun game. When they were playing regular chess they were not good, now they are the kings of the hill. -- FEATURES -- * FREE TO PLAY * Realtime chess battles multiplayer with people around the world. * In multiplayer you can send an emoji (to express your feelings) with every move you submit. Instant fun! * Play Levels created for other players, you can find really madness here, but you can undo your move... everyone can make a mistake. * Create your own custom Level and submit it to everyone can play it. Challenge the world! * Try local multiplayer battles with friends in the same device. Head to head! * Practice playing versus Ziri. * A lot of different color themes, play day and night with your favourite colors. Thank you for playing "Chessplode"! I really hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it ;) Support: Are you having problems? http://twitter.com/juaxma http://twitter.com/chessplode hello@juan.ma Privacy Policy: http://juan.ma/chessplode/privacypolicy/ AppPreview Music: https://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music/track/jazzy-frenchy © Juan Manuel Altamirano Argudo / juan.ma
