fun, imo better than chess
playing the climbing silver opening against beginner bots is very fun
やめた方がいいよ
接続すぐ切れるし運営も適当
AI対戦のレベル、謎の棋力設定
これは私の体感ですが、 レベル1〜2は16級程度、 レベル3は10級程度、 レベル4は6級程度、バグなのか知りませんが、レベル4だけなぜか強いです、 レベル5は12級程度、レベル5はなぜかめちゃ弱いです、レベル3の方がたぶん強いです。 レベル6は9級程度、 レベル7は8級程度、 レベル8は5級程度、ここから少しずつ手強くなってきます。 レベル9は3級程度、 レベル10は初段程度、序盤は弱いですが、終盤は五段くらいあると思います、私も全駒する勢いでやらないと逆転されそうになります レベル11からまた急激に強くなります、三段くらいあるでしょうか、序盤も強いのでウォーズ二段の私は3回に1回しか勝てません、ぴよ将棋のレベル23と体感同じくらいです レベル12は三段前後あると思います、私は5回に1回勝てるかどうかです レベル13も三段程度だと思います、14と15はやってないので分かりません。
うーん
課金をしないとだいぶキツイです キャラクターや出来る回数などは課金をしないと難しいですね 正直ちょっとガッカリです
向こうも商売
広告に関しては利益も大事なので特に不満はないが、ユーザーが固定化されつつあるように感じるのは改善するべきなのかなぁ。
nice
makes it very easy to learn shogi, but it doesn’t hold your hand or do it for you, so you actually learn by doing it. also rly helpful features like showing where each piece can move and whether or not a piece is at risk of being taken
Forced Updates
If the app clearly works already how are you going to force an update? I had no internet access and the offline app still would not let me access it until it was updated.
Sound problem
The games runs smoothly but theres one problem I’m dealing with my sound won’t work offline and when I’m online it follows my opponent’s setting and can’t here my sound. Please fix this issue
流してほしく無い時に広告が流れる
練習対局という機能があり、自分に合ったレベルを設定してAIと対局できます 驚くべきことにこの練習対局中に音声付きの広告が流れ出します 次の手はどうしようかな、と考えてる時にです 実践詰将棋という、大量の詰将棋問題を解くことができます この詰将棋問題を沢山解けばその分実力が付くでしょう しかしこの詰将棋の問題を解いている時にも音声付きの広告が流れます とても集中できません
詰将棋の判定がおかしい
例を出すと三手詰ステージ22、最後は5二銀成でも合い利かずで三手詰みなのにも関わらず不正解判定です。このアプリの詰将棋では合い効かずの詰みは不正解になるようです。複数詰み筋があるのは、そもそもが実戦詰将棋なので質が低いとも思いませんし気になりませんが、これだけは修正すべきです。 他、対局周り等は良いと思います。
Very fun and amazing
The way it is delivered to the player helped me learn the basics in only 3 days and I’m Already beating level 3 ai after 5 days. The hardest part is learning the symbols for the pieces. It was very easy and fun to learn and play that it has become my go to game when not playing with friends. I used to play a lot of chess and I still use some strategies from that mainly being the ladder mate with 2 rooks. Overall I would recommend to a friend if Shogi didn’t look so complex
Outdated design, no guides
Over complicated app. No rules, no guides, nothing. Just online and CPU but done in such a roundabout way, it’s hard to navigate.
Missing Translations
This game is great. It would be nice though if the Shogi Towers mini game could have the simplified letters like in the main game. For people who don’t know Japanese, the text of some pieces look the same and it’s very hard to promote.
広告について
広告が下の方に小さくあるので、アプリ内の音量を全てオフにしてもうるさいです。 普段別のアプリで音楽流しながらやってるので改善できるならして欲しいです。
将棋大会
将棋は面白いですよね
AI fixes required
No matter how many times I try the the lvl 8 AI I’m practice mode just does not make mistakes. I have done by the book strategy off book all the above but it just screws me everytime.
Broken
Keeps taking my pieces with ones that cant
Always room for improvement but .. Great!
Excellent tool for learning, playing vs CPU and playing vs another human. (Better than a magnetic travel board + pieces!) English rules desperately need revision! Detailed bug report (with recommendations) submitted. Tsume Shogi - it would be nice to be able to recall today’s 10 problem boards (e.g. as a screen shot) because the purported solution is not always a valid solution .. at least not from a move count perspective.
すごくいい
今までの将棋アプリで一番好き
遊びやすい
級位の方には遊びやすく、上段者はちょっと物足りないかもしれません。当方ウォーズ四段、24でレート1900くらいですが、20局位で五段になってしまいました。 すぐに上がってしまうので、段位が棋力を反映していないようです。
Great game I even subscribed
My only issue is I wish with the subscription you could retract a move without watching an add. Especially since it’s been helping me learn but watching an add every mistake (for me it’s a lot of mistakes since I’m new) it can be kind of daunting especially since I’m already paying a premium I’d gladly pay another to remove the retract move add 😂
Too many ads
I'm playing exclusively in practice mode, and I get fullscreen ads after every game - they run 15-30 seconds and cannot be closed. I'd be happy to pay to remove these, but there's no option for that.
I <3 shogi
<3
フレーズしまくり
勘弁してくれ
Ads are TOO intrusive
Video ads are too long and too frequent for basic navigation
Pleasant surprise
I wanted to learn this game because I watch a lot of anime and it is a pretty common intellectual game. I was pleasantly surprised with how fun it is. I’m low key obsessed with it.
Please fix crashes
Fun UI but constant crashing has caused me to loose a lot of games which is extremely frustrating. Please fix connection issues!!
It works for me
I don’t remember the game being able to teach me how to play though I was able to figure it out using the internet. Otherwise it’s a great way to play shogi. There are different level computers and I can can play online against other people much like how you can on chess.com. And the game can be in English too!
Glitching..!!
The game is glitching to double my reward points to watch a movie it won’t even open it keeps spinning to load but nothing happens..!!
Good but crashes a lot
The gamehas a lot of glitches and crashes
AMAZING
I absolutely love this shogi game. It’s the best that I’ve played! I’ve been playing for a while and I learned rather quickly. 5 stars<3
Horrible translation/English
I didn’t even start the game last the initial screen. The English translation is so laughably bad with completely broken grammar. I could see myself getting more frustrated with the text than losing. Just no.
This is super fun
This app is super great but the level 1 AI is harder than the level 3 so I’m very confused about that
初心者には向いてない
レベル1から急に難易度が上がる。ガチの初心者はレベル初級しかできない。
APP KEEPS CRASHING
otherwise I would give it five stars 😭
Fun
This game is fun
Frequent disconnections
In the middle of heated battle, disconnections occur. So frustrating.
Can be improved
The gold coin system makes it really hard to view answers to puzzles. The developers can improve this system. Also, a “human vs human” mode can be added. Overall, this is the best app on iOS for Shogi. Excellent!
勝手に（自分が）投了する
持ち時間は残っているし、投了ボタンも押してないのに投了で負けたことになります。 今日は残り11秒（カウントダウンが出る前）で投了の青い表示が大きく出ました。投了ボタンを押した覚えはないので、相手が投了したのかと思いましたが自分が負けでした。 持ち時間が信用できないので安心して指せません。
Worked great until it didn’t
Really fun game but the app started crashing every time i try to play
Wish we had tournaments and events at game
Game is really too amazing and enjoyable But I wish we had things like events at game And when you win someone at online there would be rewards If they add things like it could be more enjoyable and amazing
BROKEN TRASH GARBAGE GAME
THIS IS LITERALLY THE WORST ATTEMPT AT A SHOGI GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED HOW THE HELL ARE PEOPLE SUPPOSED TO ENJOY THIS GARBAGE IF THE AI DOESNT HAVE TO FOLLOW THE RULES THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OFF THE APP STORE
Learning
I’m using this app to learn Shogi and learn basic shogi strategy I’m still really bad but I’m having fun with it.
Not far
I just started playing shogi a day ago and I get a guy who probably has played more the a month the skill difference is Crazy my first ever game with a person and he’s way better in chess.com the paring is good match’s your skill level with others the same level but this this is bull I had no hope in hell of winning and to many adds every second
Love this game
I love this game. Good ui but i got one thing that irritates me i.e. the green screen portion on top and bottom of the main gameplay screen. I have iphone xr and i think it is not yet optimise for that please read this review and fix it as soon as possible.
It’s great
It’s a great experience of shogi and gives us shogi players an ability to practice when using this app
Ai is too weak
Thought the ai would be decent.... it this app isn't worth the memory space needed....the ai is not even of single digit kyu strength which makes it less then average.
面白い！
詰め将棋の問題が沢山あるのが嬉しいです。
Works, but doesn’t teach.
The app works basically as expected, but unlike the exceptionally long description suggests, the game does not contain any explanation about how to play for people to learn if they are curious and looking for something to start with.
Hours of fun ahead!
I really enjoy the online play and ability to customise. The servers have recently been unstable though, with frequent disconnects affecting ratings too easily. The AI however does have some weak points against threatmates, Joseki and piece structure.
