We would like to inform you that the game Tacto Chess has worked with Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 in our recent tests. But unfortunately, the device Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 is currently considered as not compatible with Tacto Chess due to its screen PPI (Pixel Per Inch). For more information on the compatibility, please do write to us at reachout[at]playshifu[dot]com, we'd be happy to help you. Sincerely, Team PlayShifu! **Q: Is iPad mini 2 supported?** A: The iPad Mini 2 will be supported, but I would recommend a latest gen Tab, as in older gen tabs the software may be laggy and then you won't be able to enjoy the product as much. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***1 on 28 December 2025* ### ⭐ Review *by D***H on 11 December 2023* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***K on 24 September 2023* ## Frequently Bought Together - PlayShifu Interactive Chess Board Game - Tacto Chess (Kit + App with 4 Modes) Fun Chess Set for Kids, Beginners, for Kids, Age 6 & Up | Chess Learning Games (Tablet Not Included) - PlayShifu Educational Globe for Kids, Orboot Earth (Globe + App) Interactive AR World Globe, 400 Wonders, 1000+ Facts, STEM Toy Gifts for Kids 4-10 Years, No Borders, No Names on Orboot Globe - Tacto Electronics by PlayShifu - Real Figurines, Digital Games | Tinkering Game Set for Kids | STEM Toy Gift for Boys & Girls Ages 6 to 12 Years (App Based, Tablet not Included) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/417279614-playshifu-tacto-chess-ar-stem-chess-board-for-kids-ages](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/417279614-playshifu-tacto-chess-ar-stem-chess-board-for-kids-ages) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
