Can you place Rook on e1 on 4-th move? All rules are classical and white start the game.
By cheating yes.

No cheating only chess rules in classical starting position
The soonest I can see either side legally getting a rook to e1 is on their fifth move.

If you don't play through the moves in the diagram, like I didn't, then it can still be interesting.

White begin and....
For anyone confused the goal is mate in two despite the fact that there are mates in one.
If anybody confused-do not play chess
Do not show solution or hints. It is not interesting and very spoilering

Aren't those who play chess inclined to look for mate in one rather than mate in two? How would they know to look for a mate in two in this position unless you tell them that is the goal?
I see what you're trying to do with "White begin and...." but I don't know if everyone else gets it (I didn't at first), Just trying to help.

No/ Chess puzzles can be on many other and very different goals and skills.
