Welcome to the Chess Puzzles Series – an entertaining world of games created on the basis of the game of chess. To play these games you do not have to be a chess professional of any rank whatever; all you must know is how the chess pieces make moves. However, even if you are not familiar with the ancient game at all – do not worry, for you will surely have no problems learning the few rules you need to know.
Chess Puzzles Series includes games of varying degrees of difficulty. Some games or game levels are suitable even for kids 5-6 years old, whereas others may include (or rather generate) tasks difficult enough to puzzle a highly experienced grandmaster.
The principal motto of the series is, Derive benefit from entertainment!
What is the entertaining aspect of the puzzles all about? It consists in the interesting and fascinating play! In the possibility to compete with yourself and with others! And where does the benefit come in? Well, as you play, your intellectual abilities improve (probably without your noticing it!). These are speed of comprehension, memory, concentration of attention, logical and imaginative thinking, spatial imagination, the ability to precisely calculate the consequences of your actions, and many others. Psychological studies have shown that such abilities are the basis for success in secondary or high school studies as well as in business. Quite a few of these faculties are constituent parts of the chess abilities (which predetermine ones achievements in the game). Therefore the Chess Puzzles we offer will be of use to qualified chessplayers willing to make progress. Last but not least, our Chess Puzzles will also be of benefit to chess beginners, who are guaranteed to learn elementary chess skills and consolidate their knowledge while playing.
Last Move is the third program in the series. It is a generator of all sorts of game situations in which you will have to make only a single move, but that will be the most important one – mate to the opponents King. The program is going to teach you not only to discover mates in the most difficult positions, standard-looking as well as highly non-trivial, but also to create, construct them on your own in the course of unusual and very fascinating games. In spite of the seeming simplicity, the game tasks will require of you to demonstrate all of your best play-related abilities: ingenuity, intuition, logical and creative thinking.

Another thing that really makes Last Move v1.1 enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Last Move v1.1. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
