    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.

    Difficulty needs to be adjusted. Way to hard for beginners to level up

    Well done app without many restrictions. Take back, save, load. I just didn't see music background. It could be interesting
