About this game

Do you want to get better at chess? Download this addictive chess puzzle app and improve your chess skills today!

Fun Chess Puzzles Pro has a collection of more than 4000 carefully selected chess puzzles also referred to as chess tactics, which range from simple to extremely difficult.
The solution of a chess tactic is the sequence of best moves to be played from the given position.
A chess puzzle is considered solved only if all the moves in the solution are played in the correct order.

Your rating is updated with each chess puzzle played. If you solve a chess puzzle, your rating increases, whereas if you fail to solve it your rating decreases.
Chess tactics displayed in the app are based on your current skill level.
The rating is updated according to the Glicko-2 rating system, invented by Mark Glickman.
The chess puzzles include a wide variety of tactical motifs: checkmate, blocking, interference, pin, discovered attack,
clearance, trapped piece, sacrifice, skewer, overloaded piece, advanced pawn, mate threat, removing the defender, X-ray attack,
weak back rank, zugzwang, zwischenzug, perpetual and stalemate.

This is a fantastic app! I like the puzzles, the ELO scoring, the ability to enter 'analysis' mode after the puzzle is solved, the ability to continue the game and see how my thinking compares to the computer-determined best move (lol - sometimes my move would be horrible), etc. I started with the free version and am happy to support the devs by upgrading to the pro version.

I wish I liked this app more. Often there is more than one logical solution and no reason for why one is chosen over the other. Frustrating. Revision: So after further consideration, I'm upgrading my review to 4 stars. I would find it helpful if there a short hint for each puzzle, such as "Find best move" or "Mate in 3". Sometimes I can find a mate in 3 but the puzzle won't take that because it's looking for a pin or fork. Still, the app is well worth the price to upgrade to pro.

Hi. Thanks for your feedback. Did you try to play your moves and see the engine evaluation and refutation for the moves that were not considered in the puzzle solution?
