#6457

The first one has a unique solution in 17.5 per Euclide.

Second has duals.

Is this unique?

This solution isn't. But maybe it can be shorter.

Here is one of several solutions to the 14.0 SPG, per Stelvio 2.0, solution time 11 seconds.

Here's another proof game in 14.0. No promotions.

Ah, I overlooked that; very tricky alternative route. I intended for the promotion line to be unique, and I didn’t see any other non-promotion path, until now.

Perhaps if I move wBg7 to f6 (or e5/d4) and add black’s g-pawn back, the solution will be unique? I think the bishop would interfere with the black queen this time.

But what about this game, among others?
