What does en Passant mean?. I am a beginner. But this Natasha Does cheat. I don’t know how to post the screenshot pics of my moves to prove here. So I wonder if it is programming issues or not.

Pretty confident the site doesn't do that.  I would guess that other sites don't do that either.  happy.png
