Game Instructions & Description
How to Play Battle of the Minds
Battle of the Minds is a timed chess puzzle game. Instead of a full match, each puzzle shows a critical position where you must find the best move, whether that means checkmate, winning material or securing a strong position. You choose a 3-minute or 6-minute challenge and try to solve as many puzzles as you can before time runs out. Speed raises your score, but a wrong move costs time, so the challenge is balancing quick thinking with accuracy. Scores go on a worldwide leaderboard. You play by clicking pieces and planning moves with the mouse. It suits chess players who want to sharpen tactics and anyone who enjoys puzzles under time pressure.
