Mate in one

One move, and Black has no reply. The fastest way to train the patterns that finish games.

2,984 puzzles at mate in 1, each one proven rather than estimated: for every position, the listed move was played against every legal defence to the full mate distance, and every defence loses. Each puzzle has exactly one winning first move, so there is a single answer to find.

Prefer to solve them on a board that moves? The puzzle trainer plays the defence for you. The patterns behind these finishes are named in the glossary, and the piece guides cover what each piece can do.
