ChessSetArt has got visuals of excellent quality. It makes you feel like you have actually entered a museum. The Insects, Chinese Ivory, Delhi Jaggernauts, Meiseen Sea Life and Val St. Lambert Crystal are some of the chess sets that wowed me. The Insects chess set has butterflies as king and queen and the Val St. Lambert Crystal set is made up of clear, green crystals. My personal favorite is The Meissen Sea Life chess set, which contains various sea creatures like the octopus and star fish. One can’t help but wonder how much these eloquent chess sets cost.
ChessSetArt is suitable for people of all ages and has got pleasant background music. As the app requires full Internet connectivity, there are chances of interruptions in between, especially if you are exploring the app while traveling. The price of the app can be reduced to benefit more users.
ChessSetArt is packed with information and is sure to delight all chess enthusiasts. It costs $9.99 and requires Android 2.2 or later versions.
