Chess tactics training in Polish

Repeatable sets of tasks grouped by motifs - you solve them on the board, in any order, as many times as you want.

In short: 213 tactical tasks in 38 categories, from checkmate in one move to cover and cugcwang. You solve each task on an interactive board and immediately see whether the move was correct. Progress is counted separately for each theme and saved in your browser. You don't need an account.

Want to see one task first without going into the full workout? Solve the example on the page chess tasks, where you will also find a complete list of all 38 categories.

Four sections, increasing difficulty

• Maty: mate in 1, mate patterns, mate in 2, mates with light figures.
• Matte motifs: 18 named patterns - from checkmate on the last line, through checkmate of opera, Anastasia and Arabic, to checkmate of Boden and two bishops.
• Basic themes: tie-up, fork, pin, open attack, double check, overload.
• Advanced themes: intermotion, roentgen, cugcwang, obscuration, retraction, attraction, poor promotion, desperado, counterattack.

Why motivational training works

In the party you don't get hints "here's the tactics". By practicing one motif in a series, you learn to recognize its pattern and then notice it in the batch without notice. That's why the tasks are grouped thematically, not mixed. Not sure what exactly a fork or tie is? See explanations of themes on the page chess tactics.

What does the task look like?

1. You are given a position and a command, e.g. "find the forks that win the material".
2. Wykonujesz ruch na planszy; zaplanowana odpowiedź przeciwnika odtwarza się automatycznie.
3. A wrong move does not end the task: you keep trying, and after the second mistake you get a hint.
4. The solved task immediately counts towards category progress.

Be honest about the limitations

• Tasks have fixed solutions. They teach patterns, but they will not replace playing with a live opponent.
• Zestaw liczy 213 pozycji; to trening rozpoznawania motywów, a nie niekończąca się baza puzzli.
• Postęp zapisuje się lokalnie; na innym urządzeniu zaczynasz od zera (eksport danych jest w ustawieniach aplikacji).
