Shredder Chess
by Eiko Bleicher, Skizzix.com
Shredder is the most intuitive Chess app in the App Store. Whether you are solving a puzzle or
playing the computer, Shredder is smart enough to help you out without telling you the problem. It
changes its difficulty as you improve your skills (or start to lose them), and even offers you hints as
you play against it. Shredder Chess truly is like playing against another person that is able to analyze
and discuss what is happening on the board. If you want a Chess app, get this one.
Notable Apps
Free
Chess Free
by Optime Software LLC
If you're not looking for something quite as fancy (or pricey) as Shredder Chess and simply want to
just play the game, look no further than Chess Free. First, it's free. But it is also has a very nice and
simple design with multiple AI difficulties and the ability to play other humans. No puzzles or a genius
computer, but it gets the job done. And for free, too.

Fritz Chess
by Gammick Entertainment LTD.
Fritz Chess is very similar to Shredder Chess in that it has its intuitive computer behind the scenes
challenging you every step of the way. After playing against the computer, you can review the game
and have the computer show you why your moves may have been good, or not-so-good. While it has
nice touches like timing the games, the overall design and amount of features fall a bit short of
Shredder Chess. But, if you're really looking to save $4 and want an incredibly intuitive Chess
application, Fritz is the app for you.

Caissa Chess
by Boris Ioffe
Caissa Chess has many nice features. It has a pretty intuitive computer running the show, as well. The
computer has multiple difficulties and also gives hints throughout the game. Everything is pretty
simple and straightforward as far as the computer and gameplay goes, but Caissa Chess suffers when
it comes to its design. Frankly, the app is a bit of an eye-sore. I'd recommend either saving your $4
and getting Chess Free or ponying up a few bucks more and getting Fritz or Shredder Chess. If you
don't feel like ponying up anymore, however, and don't feel satisfied by Chess Free, this app certainly
has potential (especially if your vision isn't what it used to be).
