TACTICS REIMAGINED

Solving a known tactic is not the same as recognizing one under pressure.

Every drill is a real position from a real game. No labels. No “white to move and win.” You decide whether the position deserves calculation, and pay for false alarms just like you'd pay in a real game.

Training Ground

Twelve rating bands.

Choose an Elo band from 1200 to 2500+, sprint against the clock, or drill by opening or player rating. Every drill is scored on awareness first, execution second.

Analytics

Five possibilities. All tracked.

Spot it. Miss it. See a ghost. Miscalculate. Solve it with no mistakes. Tactical Radar separates all five so you know exactly where your awareness is breaking down.

Correct Execution

You recognized the opportunity and completed the tactical sequence successfully.

False Positive

You called a tactic where no sound tactical opportunity existed.

Missed Tactic

You moved on when a real tactical opportunity was available.

Wrong Continuation

You recognized the tactical moment but failed to complete the correct line.

Clean Solve

Correct execution with no mistakes (no false positives, missed tactics, wrong continuations).

Train the alarm, not only the calculation.

Traditional puzzles strengthen calculation after the signal has already been given. Tactical Radar trains the internal alarm that tells you when to stop, look deeper, and calculate.

GAME CONTEXT

Tactics appear in the flow of ordinary moves, quiet positions, and tempting false alarms, not as labeled puzzle moments.

NO HINTS

No flashing clues. No "White to move and win." You decide whether the position deserves calculation.

STAY SHARP

Every critical moment counts. Spot the tactic, avoid the false alarm, or learn exactly where the opportunity was missed.

“Tactical Radar is perfect for its target audience. It trains a skill many chess players struggle with: recognizing when tactics exist in real game positions. For intermediate and advanced players, especially those with tactical blind spots, this is a great training tool.”

“Tactical Radar is a useful training tool. It focuses on a real weakness many players have: recognizing when tactical opportunities exist in realistic game positions. I believe players will benefit from it.”

MEET THE CREATOR

I could solve tactics, but I kept missing them in my games.

I’m Warren, the founder and lead engineer behind Tactical Radar. I created it to give players a way to practice the part ordinary puzzles leave out: recognizing when a position actually contains a tactical opportunity.
