Castle victory achievement

You get this secret achievement by checkmating your opponent by castling. You can get the achievement in both rated and unrated games.

It is easiest to get this achievement by playing an unrated game against a friend where you are both working together to get the achievement. However, it is possible (but difficult) to do this in a rated game against a random opponent. Here is the easiest method to get the achievement with a friend.

Steps:

  1. Trade off all the minor pieces and the queens.
  2. Have your opponent sacrifice their rooks.
  3. Move 1 of your rooks out of the way.
  4. Get your friend to move their king to the same rank as your king.
  5. Cut off the king's escape with your rook that has already moved, trapping the king on the back rank.
  6. Castle for checkmate.

Example game:

There are other methods, but this is the easiest in my opinion.
