Yes, i enjoy the puzzles and they have improved my pattern recognition. However in real matches , I occasionally get in a pickle, as we all do. When I review the game I see that I have missed the game saving move. Maybe my move was OK but not best, sometimes my opponent may blunder and i get out of trouble that way... but i would love it if , say, half the puzzles were along the line of " your opponent is threatening checkmate in 3, you have 1 move that can save you and get the game back to an even match"

Wow. That's absolutely insane. I love how Stockfish has a few "wait a second...yes, this is a draw" moments when analyzing. That's when you know it's quite the epic puzzle.
