Test Your Skills on Positional Chess

Tired of tactics? Why not try out our positional puzzles! Depending on the level of each exercise (they are presented in ascending order of difficulty) you will probably need between 5 and 20 minutes to find the solution. If your solution doesn't coincide with the one in the studies, don't despair – the main thing is to grasp the general idea, and if you haven't, then give yourself more time for the next position.
