This is a very good course! The tactics puzzles showcased in this collection is THE ABSOLUTE BEST SET I HAVE FOUND SO FAR. Only Susan Polgar's Chess Tactics For Champions has a set as good as this. Why is it good? The tactics are common and will appear in games. For instance there are numerous endgame tactics and opening tactics that say focus on the f7/ f2 square. However, this cannot be the first set you do. It's too difficult. It's practical for 1200-1800 players and should be memorized.

Useful game for improvement in chess

The puzzles go from too easy to way too difficult without any explanations. I'm a beginner and would like things to be more progressive. I would recommend this probably for intermediate players.

Great for a beginner to start thinking 2 or 3 steps ahead

The interface isn't explained real well but I'm catching on. Great tool for getting back into the game again.
