How to play Chess Tactics Puzzles

Open Chess Tactics Puzzles, check the instructions and begin a round. Force checkmate in the stated number of moves. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Read the objective before making your first input. Look at what changes after your first action.

Practise with 64 king-and-queen checkmate positions: 48 mate-in-one puzzles and 16 mate-in-two puzzles. This collection focuses on delivering checkmate.

Make the controls familiar

Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Make the next step deliberately.

Your goal

Force checkmate in the stated number of moves. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Keep the controls in easy reach.

Step by step

  1. Read the mate objective.
  2. Choose a legal attacking move.
  3. The defender replies automatically where another move is required.
  4. Finish the forced mating line.

Controls

Select pieces and targets; use Hint or New puzzle. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

A useful example

A legal check is wrong when it permits escape from the required mate. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Look for the relevant detail.

Watch out for this

The objective is forced mate, not merely checking the king. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
