Playing chess endgames is a very important and efficient way to improve one's chess skills. But often it's very difficult and expensive for a player to find a partner or tutor to help practice endgames. This app solves this problem by collecting over 60,000 endgames and providing an easy and simple interface for the user to play endgames. The user can try to solve the puzzle first and then verify the solution with the computer. Or the user can study the solution provided by the computer. With time, the user can improve his/her chess skills quickly.

This is a true endgame app

This is NOT a collection of chess puzzles. With such puzzles there’s only one right move. Make a wrong move, and the game halts. And you get an error message of some sort.Here you start with actual endgames. You can make any legal move you want and the game will continue on.I can’t rate the game 5 stars because it’s a bit clunky. After you move you must press an arrow to get the computer to move.It would be nice if the computer then moved automatically like in most chess games.

Give Credit Where Due

These are problems of the mate in X variety. For example the first one 8/8/8/p7/kPr4R/N1P5/2P5/1K5Q is by A.Myers, 1882. There are three issues with this app: (1) They do not credit any of the composers. This is beyond annoying, it is simply NOT DONE. One star for that alone. (2) They do not give the stipulations, in this case "mate in 2". (3) They do not give the correct solutions, for this one it is 1.Qd5. The app seems to calculate the solution on the fly, the first time it gave mate in 4 starting 1.b5+, the second time mate in 3 starting 1.Qa8. I looked at a sample of the other problems and it is the same story.

I don’t even know what this is supposed to be. It’s completely stupid.

Filter endgames by mates or pieces.
