The Chess Problem

White to move. Find the best continuation from a real game.

Open edition · No. 1

Setting the puzzle…

A word of instruction

Play the strongest continuation. Your pieces are at the bottom, whether White or Black.
Drag a piece to its destination, or select a piece then a square. The opponent replies automatically after a correct move.
Wrong legal moves travel to the chosen square, turn red, then return. The position stays available for another try.
Use a hint, reveal the line, start over, or press Next puzzle whenever you wish. Promotion defaults to a queen.
