The Guess the Opening puzzle is a chess take on Wordle: you start from an empty board and reconstruct a complete opening line from your repertoire. Enter your moves in sequence, submit your attempt, and use the concise feedback to refine your next try.
This puzzle helps you to:
- + Strengthen long-term recall through full-sequence reconstruction from memory.
- + Improve precision in move order and pattern recognition across your openings.
You can choose how many moves to play and which colour to play from; this determines which of your repertoires (White/Black) the line is sourced from. Click New Game to generate a fresh challenge, then enter your moves directly on the chessboard.
After completing the line, click Guess to check your attempt:
- ◦ Green — the right move in the right position.
- ◦ Orange — a move from the line, but in the wrong position.
You have up to 6 attempts to complete the full line. Use the controls to manage your run:
- ◦ Clear: Reset the board and your current guess.
- ◦ Autocomplete: Fill the line with the correct sequence (useful for quick review).
