Endgame Gym: Chess Endgames

Win more endgames. Endgame Gym is a daily training app for chess players who want to convert won positions and save lost ones. HOW IT WORKS • Play the position: every drill is a real endgame you play out yourself against a perfect defender. The defence comes from endgame tablebases (and a strong chess engine for the two largest positions), so your “win” is a real one. • Learn the idea first: each technique opens with a short lesson and a board you can step through, move by move. • Five minutes a day: today's set gives you one new drill, the reviews that are due, and five endgame puzzles. • Remember it: drills you miss come back the next day, then at longer and longer gaps (3 days, a week, a month, up to a year) so they stick for good. WHAT YOU'LL MASTER • Basic mates: queen, rook, two bishops, bishop and knight • King and pawn endings: opposition, key squares, the rule of the square, triangulation, breakthroughs • Rook endings: Lucena, Philidor, cutting off the king, the short side • Queen against rook, rook against minor pieces, the wrong bishop and its fortress • Endgame tactics: underpromotion, stalemate tricks, perpetual check • 91 drills in 8 chapters, in teaching order ALSO INSIDE • Endgame puzzles at your level, with a puzzle rating that tracks your progress • Endless reps: random positions from the basic endings until the technique is automatic • A glossary of endgame terms, linked from every lesson • Streaks and a daily reminder, if you want one • English and Spanish, light and dark mode, several boards and piece sets • Works offline (free daily puzzles unlock once a day with a connection). No account needed. Progress syncs through your own iCloud.
