Après plus de 300 niveaux dans Zen Chess, je peux dire que la musique et les sons deviennent vraiment Turbo chiants. Rien ne semble “zen” dans ce jeu — au contraire, ça peut vite devenir frustrant. Franchement, Zen Chess devrait plutôt s’appeler “Hell Chess”. 10/10
Вторая игра от этого разработчика, первую я покупала мат в два хода. Я не pro, но люблю решать задачки. Mate in one за полчаса прошла полигры, и в первую очередь скажу, что мне не понравилось: есть невозможные ходы - случайно куда-то нажал и ждешь, пока оно подаст противный сигнал ошибки, однообразная музыка, чересчур яркая доска, с трудом можно разглядеть белые фигуры. Я бы, учитывая то, что я выше написала, поставила этой игре 4 из 5, т.к. на самом деле сложно найти нормальные шахматы на просторах стима...

Good for learning chess basics.
gioco carino! Forse è il gioco piu banale dell'editore che ha sfornato giochi quasi identici ma più complessi e con più mosse x fare scacco. Apprezzabile cmq la grafica, la musica e la quantità di quadri da finire
