Joanna the mad 2 is a difficulty spike so high that can make someone that has been loving the game, hate it, its unfun to limit your own piece movements like this

Hi.
Thank you for the feedback.

Yes, we hear and understand that our players find this particular opponent too challenging. We will further nerf this opponent and start with removing the third bishop to address this.

Additionally, it appears we haven't made it sufficiently clear that players have an option of selecting an easier difficulty level after losing a game. We're currently working on better informing players about this choice.

We are also introducing a "skip" button, allowing players to proceed with the campaign even if they find certain levels too difficult to overcome.

Thats nice, especially the skip button, i won the joanna match in easy, what i noticed is that the AI havent changed the strategy, it seemed no difference at all on the bot difficulty, just the setting (knight and bishop infected), i saw another posts you saying that the AI on easy doesnt think outside of the next move, i may be new to chess, but sometimes it seems a little repetitive the AI (I've been playing against chess.com bots of many difficulties, i saying this based on that, each one has a different playstyle apparently), in one of these tries i found the AI making the same moves that was on normal difficulty, but i found that the game is nice, adding the skip button will make him more beginner friendly, i started playing chess 2 weeks ago and really enjoy some of the dynamics this game brought, thank you!
