The ultimate game 100lv with three handicap levels. It just needs a puzzle section and it would be perfect.

As a completely new player to Shogi, I like the fact that this game comes with a full explanation as to how the peices move, as well as the English first initial coupled with the Japanese names. The AI is challanging, yet not impossible so far, though, I must admit, I would like the option for the AI to speak English, or some subtitles, so that I knew what it was saying. But that doesn't impact how fun the game is, and Japanese is a language I want to learn. 5 out of 5.

I had this app a couple of times before on other devices, seems even better now. I am getting back into Shogi again and there aren't many people around here who play so it is good to have a decent AI to play against.

Like the app for sure but there should be an option to make the computer not resign. I'm running the free version so I don't know if it's a thing in the paid version, but it kind of feels like the computer quits whenever the game is getting good a lot of the time.

For a free version it is nice. Great game and smooth play. Please give an option to not allow computer surrender. Sometimes I need to practice my end game without it just giving up on me.

This has got to be one of the best Shogi games available. Not only does it have a variable difficulty from "super easy" to "I am your merciless Shogi God", but it also has English pieces for those learning, and winnable pieces and boards.
