Comments on: Is Forward Chess All It’s Cracked Up To Be?

Before apps like forward chess you had to enter in all the moves from the book by hand into a chess GUI, which beats playing them out over the board, but the convenience of forward chess is very high.

For books that start from a position and not the entire game, you had to set up the position in the chess gui which is quite a pain. Forward chess makes it one click.

Your review and the personality traits you describe are just what I needed. Reading chess books is a new adventure for me and I think the tedious work of placing pieces on a physical board is something I need. At least until I’m more comfortable with chess notation and positional awareness.
Thanks for this excellent review.
