White to Move: Qb8, King has only one option to move - Ka6 and Queen to b6 check mate. White had made only two moves and it is a check mate !

Its impossible. Get chess 3.0 on your phone and try it yourself. No matter what moves, the king finds a way out, to rajesh "White to Move: Qb8, King has only one option to move - Ka6 and Queen to b6 check mate. White had made only two moves and it is a check mate !" I move White queen to B8 King moves to c6, Queen goes to b6 king takes pawn. Ive spent hours trying this and can not solve the puzzle.

Second post indeed has it. Qa2 and no matter what black does it is mate next move.

I am not sure about how the a2 and such goes so I will describe it.  Pawn right goes to 8th rank as knight which puts black king in check.  this allows black king to take first knight in corner as second knight shields the king versus the queen.  Then, the white queen comes up next to white king checking (and mating) the black queen in the corner who is now pinned by second knight, pawn, and queen.

Now if the black king does not take the first knight once checked by the second knight it will take more than 2 moves.

Or if the first pawn on left is promoted to queen, then black knight takes queen.  Then white queen takes 2nd queen, first black queen takes knight and then the kind still has an escape so that doesn't  get it.  So, it seems to me that mate in two is predicated on king taking first knight as proposed.

Thank you!

I'm constantly amazed here by people squabbling over what is obviously a composed problem, as though it can't possibly be sound! lol

It may be possible if black blunders
