Very cool! Noctie took me for a spin on my ratings tests, but I'll learn to kick his butt haha
Samuel Sonning
@getedwix I'm sure you will! Keep at it daily – one of our users with an 89 day streak increased his rating by 250 and counting!

Already downloaded! No lie - my son is a chess nut and he's going to absolutely geek out over this. Thank you for such a great product!!
Samuel Sonning

Really nice AI to play against! I like the reviews as well, helps me figure out in what way I messed up my moves.
Sabina Sonning
@erik_hansbo Thank you Erik! So glad you like the reviews. Can you notice the difference from regular stockfish analysis?
Andreas Jakobsson
This looks reeeally interesting! Cool use case!
Sabina Sonning

@periodawindsy Never been a better time :D Noctie is chess without stress. Let us know what you think if you try it out!
Richard
Talk about perfect timing...I've just fallen in love with chess, but I was clueless about where to begin or how to play. This is just the perfect opportunity. I'll be sure to try out this app.
Samuel Sonning
@nebulascout Glad to hear that Richard! Give us some feedback when you've tried it out :)
Sabina Sonning
@nebulascout you are not alone! Chess is in a continuous boom :) Please check in later and share you're experience, I really want to learn from you (beginner as well as GM:s).
Richard
@samuel_sonning Sure will👍
JONNY
Oh, I really like this idea and the app overall! It's definitely something else than the regular chess bots, etc. Makes a lot of sense. Maybe I finally will learn to play chess for real this time, haha! 😄
Sabina Sonning
@javve thank you Jonny! I'm glad you can feel the difference between Noctie and a classical bot. Sometimes when I play I can really sense that she has a plan. It's pretty cool! I think it's a great place to start (safer to make stupid mistakes) but really built for deliberate practice. If you get hooked, let me know, I'd love to get more feedback on how we can improve learning.
