Weirdo Fantasy Mate in Ones
Aloha! It's Mrs Jessica Prescott again, aka BoundingOwl. Test your skill and speed today with these outrageous checkmate puzzles! One good trick to use is to first identify where the king can go to escape. Next, trap him!
1. Use a helper mate.
2. Boden's Mate, aka Criss Cross Mate.
3. There is only one correct answer!
(Hint: Goodknight!)
4. Hint: The way the white pieces are lined up is actually a hint itself!
5. Remember, pieces can move backwards!
7. It's a queen move...
How fast were you? How accurate were you? It's actually more important to get the answer right than to be super fast and get the answer wrong over and over again.
Tip of the week: Strive to be accurate (get the right answer) when you are solving puzzles, because in a tournament you can never take your move back and try again!
