ChessEndings
Play chess endgames against a defense that never gives up
Most endgame trainers show you the answer. ChessEndings makes you win it. Every ending is played out against an engine tuned for maximum practical resistance: it never hands you the win. Spoil it and the tablebase names the exact move that threw it away. Come back later and the board is mirrored or color-swapped, so you learn the method, not the squares. It also scans your real games for the endgames you misplayed. Free tier, no signup, runs in the browser. 6 languages.
I kept "knowing" endgames I couldn't actually win. Reading a Lucena diagram and converting one against a defender who refuses to cooperate are different skills, and only the second one shows up in a real game.
So ChessEndings never shows you a solution. You play the ending out. The opponent is a client-side Stockfish tuned for maximum practical resistance: it never plays the engine-best move that hands you the win. When you spoil the position, the tablebase tells you exactly which move threw it away and why. Come back to the same ending later and the board is mirrored or color-swapped, so memorizing squares gets you nothing.
It also scans your real games and hands back the endgames you actually misplayed.
