Chess Endgame Trainer

Endgames win games — and most players never train them.

Chess Endgame Trainer gives you a focused, no-nonsense way to sharpen the part of chess that decides who wins: the endgame. Every puzzle is pulled from the Lichess database (CC0), rated, and tagged by theme, so you're always solving positions that match your level.

WHAT YOU'LL TRAIN
• Rook endgames
• Pawn endgames
• Bishop endgames
• Knight endgames
• Queen endgames
• Queen & Rook endgames
• Checkmate patterns
• Mixed endgames

Five difficulty tiers — Beginner, Casual, Club, Advanced, Master — so you can start where you are and climb from there.

HOW IT WORKS
Each puzzle drops you into a real position from a real game. Find the winning line, move by move. Get stuck? Two hints per puzzle — a highlighted piece, then a preview of the move — keep you learning instead of guessing.

BUILT TO KEEP YOU COMING BACK
• Adaptive difficulty that tracks your rating and targets your weakest themes
• Daily challenge — 7 puzzles, one leaderboard, bragging rights
• Streaks that reward showing up
• Favorites and a failed-puzzle review list, so nothing you miss gets forgotten
• Stats that show exactly where you're improving
