How To Improve Your Chess Using Fun Chess Puzzles Pro App

"Fun Chess Puzzles Pro" has a collection of more than 4000 carefully selected chess puzzles (chess tactics), which range from simple to extremely difficult.

The solution of a puzzle is the sequence of best moves to be played from the given position.

A puzzle is considered solved only if all the moves in the solution are played in the correct order.

Your rating is updated with each puzzle played. If you solve a puzzle, your rating increases, whereas if you fail to solve a puzzle your rating decreases. Puzzles 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 tactics 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.
