Chess Problems - PsyGames
Test your chess skills with these challenging puzzles created by the greatest composers.
NOTE: Solving chess problems is a great way to increase your chess tactics.
* PUZZLES
Directmates, Helpmates and Selfmates. Over 300 of the most famous and beautiful chess problems from thirteenth century to today. Most of them are miniatures. The game looks like usual chess. You need to checkmate your iPhone in 2 or 3 moves in special positions.
* LEVELS
4 levels of difficulty. If you are new to chess problems, we have special easy, yet beautiful puzzles for you. If you are advanced, we have extremely difficult puzzles.
NOTE: Even easy problems are rather hard. And you don't have 'hint' or 'solve' buttons.
* INTERACTIVITY, STYLE and COMPETITIVE SPIRIT
You can browse puzzles in the same way you browse your photos in the iPhone.
After solving each puzzle you will see the time that you spent on it. Challenge your friends to beat your time. 2009 PsyGames

Excellent Problem software I down loaded the software and love it. I am a fellow of the British Chess Problem Society and would recommend it any problemist. They have dug up some of the oldest problems and revitalized them in a new format. I love that there is no "solve" button as it makes you really think it out. Neither, Chess nor Life have such a button and this software if better without it!

Novice? Expert? You're covered... I would consider myself an armchair enthusiast for the game. This is an excellent app for anyone who wants to challenge their skills. As you resolve the scenarios, new ones pop up (hence you are given 16 scenarios and 100+ as you progress). The fact that you are *not* given a solve function or all 100 scenarios is an added bonus -- it forces you to think, resolve, and only then do you get to apply those lessons. Try sitting in a pub/bar talking chess over a pint... trust me, it's worthwhile.At $0.02 per lesson, this was well worth the price of admission. If you have even a modicum of enthusiasm for chess, the freebie sells you on the real deal. Truly a great app!

Very well done chess app I came across this app on the chess.com site, where it seemed to have a favorable following since it's release. Have been using it and enjoying it quite a bit. Easy to use and easy to see chess board, and the problems are great. Will be spending a lot of time with this app. Nice job on the debut, and expecting more great updates ahead.

why? Only has 16 puzzles, not 100 - as advertized. Why lie?The problems are boring. No tips, no variations, no PGN.If you like chess puzzles, buy Chess Quest, which has almost 100 times more puzzles of higher quality, and which is along with Versus Chess snd Caissa is my favorite chess app
