Each jump a threat I deeply fear. 😨🎯
My friends surround, but block my way, 🚷🧍♂️🧍♂️
And now I fall, no light of day. 🌑☠️
No queen or rook to break the chain, 👸🚫♜
Just quiet doom, a bound domain. 🤐⛓️
From regal height to final fate, 🏰⬇️
Who ends me here? Can you relate? 🤔👑

The king is trapped by its own pieces.
A knight delivers the final blow.
No major pieces (queen or rook) are involved.
There’s no escape, despite being surrounded by allies.

@SPK1729 Is the smothered mate also a specific type? If so, I'd guess that it's the common pattern where you use the night and queen do a double check that forces the king into the corner, then sacrifice the queen in order to get the rook beside the the king, finally hopping the knight in for the final blow?

Sorry I wasn't sure since you said there was a hidden answer, but I guess that was just that the king was smothered mated.

Can You Outsmart Legends?
This brilliant puzzle was given to top players at a 1987 tournament featuring legends like Kasparov, Karpov, and Tal. Only Mikhail Tal found the solution. Kasparov and Karpov weren't able to find the solution. Even Stockfish of chess.com can't find the solution.
Think you can crack it?
