4/5 as well, I've never promoted a pawn to a knight in all my games playing chess!!

@zorbeypiano Congrats! :)

THE LAST PUZZLE WAS AWESOME !!! most people(including me ) only think of promoting a pawn to queen...nice

[ChessNetwork]

@sigaret69 :) tricky...

These are beginner level puzzles. Anyone who didn't get all 5 should feel very average.

Ne2, Kh1, Ng3 both pons can't take one is pindown and the other is a mate in one ! after that Kg1, Nxf1 if the king takes : Kxf1, Qd1 mate ! and if the king doesnt take : Kh1than it's Qh2 mate !

[TCFLEARNMORE]

5/5

[ampyun]

the last one tricked me lol. 4/5. completely forgot you can do that.

[jakethekoenig]

5/5 I find the most difficult and beautiful puzzles are those that involve quiet moves where no check is given or piece captured. I also find they help the most in practical chess where there aren't always beautifully forcing tactics.
