QUEENKINGROOKTIMERBISHOPPAWNKNIGHTBOARDSPANGRAM: CHECKMATE

My rating: EasyMy score: Perfect

I’d love to really get into chess one day, to learn the various openings and strategies to be able to hold my own. Until then, I’ll have to content myself with completing this chess-themed Strands game in record-quick time. It really was very easy. As soon as I found QUEEN it was obvious what the others words would be, and I’ve played chess often enough that I didn’t have to wrack my brains to recall KING, ROOK, BISHOP, PAWN and KNIGHT. CHECKMATE indeed.

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know.
