rate_review Editor's Take

Chess Combinations Vol. 2 sits at 4.9 stars across 1 thousand ratings on Google Play, and is still building an audience.

In our experience, ratings this high on a board-game app usually mean the pacing respects your time, the difficulty curve doesn't stall, and the team keeps fixing issues people actually raise.

Chess King is the publisher behind this release; we'd suggest taking a quick look at their other titles on Google Play if the style clicks with you. The last visible update lands 2025-10-29, which is a small but useful signal that the team is still shipping fixes rather than treating the app as abandoned.
