This is a mate in 16, where you have to sacrifice all your pieces and make checkmate with only a knight. All the black moves are forced. The objective of this excersice is beauty of chess, but not chess itself (you can see that because there is mate in 1) but it's fun!! The order may vary a bit, but the moves are the same in every possible solution
Hope you enjoy it as much as i did
Wow, that's a really neat puzzle!
hehe lol very nice=)
1. Qe5#?

Nice! Where did you get this?
that was awesome. nice
Amazing puzzle! Watching the pawns cage the black king in was awesome.
wow nice
Nice puzzle. Not really my style but still it's nice. There is more then one faster mate. There is the seen mate in one, but further in the game, you can mate several times with the rook too. The ending position is very fun for sure.
there are several faster mates like 1.Qe5# but i enjoyed ending position VERY much.thanx for posting
