Firstly, thank you to DENVERHIGH for some great suggestions, and the Blindfold Chess group here for a link to some encouraging tips. I will still try the exercises here and there, but one of the biggest things was that the Stockfish app on my ipad/phone has an "Invisible" piece setting, so I will certainly be giving that a shot soon! Why not just try to dive in?


W3/1, 7/10, B+3

Stockfish on invisible, I had to read over the notation several times. This is how far I made it before getting a bit lost:

Progress and observations from my (edit: successful!) attempt to learn how to play blindfold chess. I hope you find this helpful! The summary of tips is here. Enjoy!
