Some of the criticisms the English edition received:

British Chess News:

“... I highly recommend this collection of excellent and often beautiful games of the highest level with first-class commentary. Stronger fans, in particular, will find it useful to improve not only their planning skills but also their tactical prowess. ”

Chess Magazine:

"... The Paraguayan GM is proving to be an excellent author ... Planning is one of those topics that is not adequately studied by fans, but it is a very important quality to become a teacher."

John Donaldson:

“... The 74 games are not only very well commented, but also contain questions and exercises in the most useful places.

Chess players of strength 1800-2400 will benefit from Play-by-Play Planning, which is first-class instructional material. ”

Sean Marsh:

“Not many readers will be able to plan in the Korchnoi style (especially the 1977 one), but using the very good material shown in this book it is possible to make little progress in one of the more complex aspects of the game. The material is suitable for all players with some experience ”.
