Pretty good app with some challenging problems. Some combination motifs are repeated a bit too often especially in the earlier sections but the this does not happen as you progress .
I love the level of the exercises and the support of the computer engine as a tool for understanding a position, that's like having a teacher with you.
The Chess Informantes where famous back in the day costing hundreds for these huge 12x18 books with real small print. This app makes studying ie tactcs is graet - some exercises are but based on real eg like Tal etc. Incredible!

Greatest chess puzzles ever!
Good program to improve the game
Good game,but would like more piece to choose from.
It is very good
Great app! Exactly the same exercises found in the book. Excellent to study everywhere. The only down side for me is the exercises enumeration. It should be the same as seen in the book. It is useful when you want to verify the author's analysis of an exercise which normally is much deeper on the book than in the App.
