Right moves for the solution to the medium chess puzzle 0079
Based on the objective of the puzzle, you have to make the right moves. Following are the right moves
- Nce5+, Nxe5+, Nxg4
- Nfe5+, Nxe5+, Nxg4
Explanation for the moves
- Nce5+ - You can fork the opponent’s king and queen using the knight from e5, but e5 is guarded by their knight. One of your knights is sacrificing itself to gain the queen
- Nfe5+ - You can fork the opponent’s king and queen using the knight from e5, but e5 is guarded by their knight. One of your knights is sacrificing itself to gain the queen
- Nxe5+ - Your next knight captures the opponent’s knight and forks king and queen. Now the king is forced to move.
- Nxg4 - Your knight captures the opponent’s hanging queen. If you give a chance, opponent will checkmate by moving their queen to g2. You have avoided a checkmate. This is how you can gain the queen in three moves.
- Nxe5 - Opponent’s knight captures yours
- Kc8 - Since there are no pieces to capture your knight, king moves to c8 to escape from the check threat
- For right move - You have used knight fork effectively to gain the queen. Good job
- For wrong move - You could have moved your knights to gain the queen through a knight fork. Do not stop trying
