Based on the objective of the puzzle, you have to make the right moves. Following are the right moves
- a4, a3, a2, a1=Q#
- a4, a3, a2, a1=R#
Explanation for the moves
- a4 - Pawn moves forward since promotion of the pawn will help you win the game for sure in four moves.
- a3 - Checkmate is certain since the king is locked in first rank by the rook which is supported by the bishop
- a2 - The promoted piece will also be supported by the bishop
- a1=Q# - The pawn is promoted to a queen and checkmate. This is called ladder mate.
- a1=R# - The pawn is promoted to a rook and checkmate. This is called ladder mate.
- Kb1 - King moves to b1
- Kc1 - Since a1 is attacked by the bishop, the king moves back to c1
- Kd1 - Since king can not move to second rank, it wanders in first rank
- Ke1 - The king has only two choices. Either move to c1 or e1
- For right move - You know that promotion of a pawn will give you a checkmate in 4 moves. You have a good understanding of the game
- For wrong move - You could have promoted your pawn to a queen or a rook. This would have fetched you a win. Try again
