Truth and Lies
The lie for the previous one was 5. If your king is in check, you may ignore the check if you can give checkmate on the same move.
You must always get your king out of check. A move that leaves your king in check is illegal.
There was actually only one lie in that set. I mistakenly labeled the round as "Find the 2 lies". That's my error, not yours.
Game #2
Difficulty: ♗ Bishop
Objective: Find the 3 truths.
There are 8 options.
- In Chess960, castling always results in the king and rook finishing on the same squares as in standard chess.
- A pawn can legally give checkmate.
- Threefold repetition is an automatic draw.
- The shortest possible checkmate in chess is delivered on White's second move.
- Two bishops of opposite colors can force checkmate against a lone king.
- If both players have only a king remaining, the game is immediately drawn.
- A knight attacks eight squares regardless of where it is on the board.
- It is possible to promote all eight of your pawns to knights in a single game.
Find the 3 truths only.
