Rumour has Chess comming back...
My friend has indicated that Chess may be coming back to the Kobo with the next firmware update. Has anyone else heard this? Any one else?

regards

Jack

I haven't seen anything that suggests chess will be back. Of course, I have no idea why it was removed in the first place.

Hi,
You could get it back in this firmware by following this procedure (at your own risk, as it is said):

The entry for chess did indeed disappeared from the beta features, but the launching tile is still present on my start screen (from a previous session). I can still run it without any difference.

So yes, we can still play chess; the trick is to be able to launch it. The only way I can find is by having the tile on the start screen.
