Do you like chess problems with a looped board?
Whoops, I just noticed that the problem was not correct. I uploaded the correct version now, sorry.

Can I contact you on Steam to ask you a question about the puzzle?

Uhm, hasn't Black already lost when White is to move first?

I cannot see how the bishop may move to c7 from the initial position: you cannot reach this square even with the looping taken into account, and bishops cannot jump over other pieces.

My fault then, i just considered that diagonals would "move on" in a loopsided dimension too. ;)

Bump for solved. OnlyTwin we'll have to hate chess more and more with you!
Really nice one chess problem so.

(just to double check, white to mate in 2 means white needs to win right? :P)

What version of the chess rules are you using, i can't see how white can check in two turns from british chess rules
Comment has been collapsed.
It is standard chess rules on a looped chess board, see Puzzlemania 4 for explanations. In short, a chess board has been wrapped into a torus.

I'm playing as white? I also assume I get the opening move?

Totally legit solution, wrong again :p Urg, I'll have to figure out what's wrong with my solution later, no time now :(

Which language do you use for algebraic notation? Since the notation differs for certain languages.
Edit: I assume: K king, Q queen, R rook, B bishop, N knight, P pawn

You have the link to this notation, use that page.

The link you provided offers every language's notation, but since you provided the english wiki I'll assume it's english. You mind if I add you to ask a single question? I would do it here but, it could potentially give a huge hint on how to solve it.

This is not relaxing! ;-)

Officially: RaraRrarhGHAHgahfgahRhargah!
First move seems obvious.
Second move seems utterly unfathomable.

Bump for solved. Now I'm gonna create 20 fake accounts just to vote "no" :P

I thought I had it, but then I found I could be stopped again...

I spent hours finding that the black king always has white square to move onto.
This one is too difficult for me I guess

Poor OnlyTwin... I do enjoy his nonograms.
One day he'll make a 20x110 one hopefully, add some serious challenge to them :D

Hi man, can you add me in steam I have guess but it seem that I need to ask first. :)

Solved....I can say it is not obvious....definitely not obvious))

This one is easier: here you should mate the black king in 2 moves, not in 3 like it was in Puzzlemania 5. You just need to think out of box a bit in this one. Also, the referenced wikipedia article about the notation may help a bit.

I also have a feeling it was tougher but this comment helped :-D
Thank you for the puzzles!

I think I found the solution but I tried many formats and none of them is right.
I added you on Steam yesterday to have a chat but you are "inactive"

Bump for solved. I, for one, actually like chess puzzles:P

Inspired by this comment, I created a small chess problem for you :)
Important things
Rules
Prizes
Solution
0-0-0Bg3
Notationwise, instead of 0-0-0 you could use 000, O-O-O, OOO.
Bb8 as a second move does not mate the black king because the second black rook may break the bishop.
Good luck and have fun! especially OnlyTwin :)
