Why this works

Small-Board Chess Puzzles in ChessHole are not about checkmate. They are about move order, reachable squares, and keeping a piece alive after the board changes.

Best first habit

Before moving, count the safe landing squares each piece will still have after its current tile collapses. That single habit prevents most early dead ends.

Who should try it

This page is tuned for club players who want a fresh side challenge before or after games in a chess-inspired puzzle that runs in the browser.

Free vs Pro

The first 40 launch boards are free. Pro is a one-time $4.99 unlock for every proof-built board, unlimited hints, and premium piece skins as they land.

What makes small-board chess puzzles different in ChessHole?

ChessHole turns small-board chess puzzles into a disappearing-board route puzzle. Each move removes the square the piece left behind.

Is this useful for club players?

Yes. It is designed for a fresh side challenge before or after games, while still using familiar chess-piece movement.
