Aquablade96 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I feel like I am the only one that is having difficulty with the chess puzzles due to a combination of not being good and also not having played in around a year. So could someone help me with these puzzles? (pic attached is how far I got on the second puzzle cause I don't know where to put the bishop) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zander Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 White knight takes black Knight. Rest everything stays same because the king can't move and it's checkmate. At least I think that's the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevR Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Shifting the knight to that spot makes sure that the black king can't move to the white squares. This also lets your bishop cover the black squares, which results in a checkmate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurken Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Lostelle has a youtube video on all the puzzles in that gym, if you are stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
