Capturing Pieces 2 (Chess)

This program features over 1,500 board-rich exercises.

For beginners, giving away a piece in a single move is simply unaffordable if you aim to improve. Similarly, you cannot afford to overlook a chance to capture your opponent's undefended piece! With more than 1,500 exercises set on crowded boards, this massive collection serves as an excellent tool for rapid beginner training. Designed for those already familiar with the game's rules, even solving just 20% of the exercises is guaranteed to boost your skills and ensure you never miss an opportunity to take an undefended piece in your own games. All exercises are drawn from real games and organized by piece type and difficulty level.
