Neither can I. I couldn't get the first move.
The first move is tricky but the rest sort of makes sense. It's hard to break old habbits in what you should look for though. I didn't make this puzzle btw it's from a book.
REAL TALK!!! I didn't get a SINGLE MOVE here! Quite a frustrating puzzle actually. And not sure it's actually worth much!
Why would someone want to do a selfmate from this position when they are only one move away from checkmate?
Because that's the point of the puzzle.
The self mate is forced, there's no moves black can do to avoid it. That's the whole point.
force black to mate you in 6 moves.
