User Reviews
Nice, clean, and straightforward. A 5 second ad might come up after a game is over, but that's it, plus the small bar ad that I barely notice. All in all, not bad. I've only played against the AI so far which is challenging even at low levels, but that's good. Also this is my first time learning shogi, and I'm having fun so far.
Would be better if there was an option to customise the handicap to select which pieces are missing e.g. which rook to remove from the board, then we can set our own challenges to try to beat. Would also like computer forfeiting to be an option to turn off as i like to play the whole game through to the end.
Honestly my biggest problem is the only visual options of the piece appearances / themes are 1. Two sets of traditional japanese pieces which can be difficult for me to use... Or 2. the very boring basic Roman letters, which I don't like at all, makes the game look and feel very boring. This needs pieces for a western player such as me to enjoy the look of. Basic letters are more for word games to me, I don't like it. I notice many japanese programs do this... Please offer visual pieces.
Decently plays on mid to upper levels, but seems to overly prefer 3rd file rook against Black's static rook on highest levels. Little variety in how it plays and seems it can be "forced" into losing variations that better players would hardly ever use.
