Goal: Check! Only one or two moves save your king — move, block or capture. Find them. 3 puzzles · ★★★ = no mistakes.
In check? Think of the three ways out. 1) Move: the king could step to one of the dots…
Double check from a rook and a bishop! Find the only move.
Try all three ways: can the king move? Can you block? Can you capture the checker? With two checking pieces, only a king move works.
When you are in check, list the three ways out: Move, Block, Capture. If none of them works, it is checkmate — and the game is over.
Chapter 3 — Check: Attack the king — and learn the three ways out of check: move the king, block, or capture the attacker.
