Analysis vs Game Review

Sort:

Does it seem to anyone else that the labels for "Game Review" and "Analysis" are reversed? I would think that "Game Review" would do just that, review the game by stepping through it, which is what "Analysis" does. I would also think that a game "Analysis" would go deeper into the game by showing stats, best moves, mistakes, insights, etc which is what "Game Review" does. An I looking at this wrongly and does it really matter? I just remember when I first started on this site it was confusing.

Game Review is the name of the product that automatically analysis the game and lets you review that output, along with tools wrapped around it, such as retrying moves and suggested lessons regarding the themes from the game.

 

Analysis is just an analysis board with engine lines and primarily used for positional analysis.
