### 5/5 — good

*2022-10-13, version 3.9*

Very good puzzles. Make you think. At first I thought there were one or two that were not forced mate, but dependent on arbitrary choices, but then I realized that mate could be achieved via different paths in the same number of moves.

### 5/5 — Fun and challenging!

*2022-10-12, version 3.9*

It starts off fairly easy and gradually works it's way into being more and more challenging. It has forced me to think about my moves in a differently. Forced to think outside of my usually box. It's great!

*2021-05-23, version 3.6*

J’aime cette application. Il est dommage que nous n’ayons les solutions possibles comme dans l’autre application.  Pour apprendre et travailler ce serait plus efficace surtout pour les pb de plus de 3 coups. Enfin pour moi et mon niveau.
