About

Our mission

Chess Puzzle Trainer is built on a simple idea: tactical training should be free, focused, and available to everyone — whether you just learned how the pieces move or you're sharpening your game for tournament play.

Every puzzle comes from a real game, analyzed and rated by difficulty so you're always working at the right level. As you solve, your personal rating adjusts to match your skill, and the puzzles you see can grow with you.

The puzzles

Our puzzle database is sourced from LichessCreative Commons CC0 Creative Commons CC0 license. Each puzzle was generated from real games and verified with the Stockfish engine to ensure every solution is sound.

How it works

• Browse puzzles by difficulty rating or tactical theme — forks, pins, mates, and more.
• Each puzzle has its own page you can bookmark or share with a friend.
• Create a free account to track your progress, count your solves, and build a personal rating.
• Your rating moves up when you solve and down when you don't — just like a real chess rating.
