When I was in high school, my dad showed me how to play Knight Tour on a piece of paper. Many years passed before I decided to create the Knight's Graph app. “Knight's Graph” is an intellectual puzzle game based on the classic knight tour problem, known since the 18th century. Your task is to move the chess knight across the board so that each square is visited exactly once. Test your logical and strategic skills in an exciting game where every game is a new challenge! The app is already available for download on the App Store. Google Play will be available a little later. App Store:…

Hi HN, Matle is a daily chess puzzle inspired by Wordle. You're shown a checkmate position with 5 hidden squares, and your goal is to guess what’s on them to complete the mate. Someone kindly shared it here a few months ago before I had the chance to post it myself. I’m the creator, and wanted to share a few new features based on feedback, and hear your thoughts. You can now view the original game behind each puzzle, get explanations for why a guess isn’t checkmate, and see daily solving stats. Would love to hear what you think: https://matle.io

I've been having fun building out a really simple chess learning app for my daughter (7). It started with just "maze like" puzzles [1] and I've added a few more. This "radioactive pooping knights" idea came from an Irish primary school chess website [2]. Really simple idea, two knights moving around the board leaving poo behind... Don't be the one forced to step on it. * best played with sound on. [1]. https://minichessgames.com/#/movement/knight [2]. https://ficheall.ie/ *highly subjective, may not be better for you to play with sound at all ;) p.s.…

Chess, but each square also follows the rules of Conway's Game of Life. Only your own pieces count as neighbours when deciding births/deaths. For births, an empty square must have 3 neighbours for 2 consecutive turns. For deaths, a piece must have 3 neighbours for 3 consecutive turns. This is a simple proof of concept I made with python and curses. You can play with a friend locally or over a socket connection. Controls: Arrow keys to move the cursor, enter/space to select and move a piece, u or backspace to undo a move, r to redo a move, q or escape to quit, s to perform a move…
