A real game does not tell you when a tactic exists.

Step 1

Enter the game before the tactic.

Instead of dropping you directly into a puzzle diagram, Tactical Radar lets you play through the moves leading to the critical position. You see the opening, the plans, and what changed.

• Real game context
• No puzzle title revealing the motif
• No one to tell you if a tactic exists
• The position must be judged as it would be over the board

Step 2

Decide whether the position is tactical.

Call the tactic when you believe an opportunity exists. Move on when it does not. Both decisions matter.

• Tactic and no-tactic positions
• Optional confidence input where currently supported
• False positives are tracked
• Missed opportunities are tracked

Step 3

Commit to a candidate move.

When you call a tactic, identify the move you believe begins the tactical sequence. You can use Nevermind before committing a move, but once you play the move, the decision counts.

• Candidate-move commitment
• No takebacks after the move is committed
• Real-game decision pressure
• Defensive resources and alternative tactical ideas can be recognized where supported

Step 4

Complete the continuation.

Recognizing the moment is only the beginning. Continue the line and prove that the tactical idea works.

• Detection and conversion are measured separately
• Correct call with incorrect continuation is tracked
• Clean solutions receive distinct credit
• Refutations explain false tactical calls where available

Your decisions shape what you see next.

Ratings, drill history, outcomes, timing, tactical themes, and recurring errors help Tactical Radar show you the areas that need the most attention.

• Difficulty adapts to the selected mode and position pool
• Daily Drill builds consistency
• Training Ground supports targeted practice
• Tactical Psychology identifies behavioral patterns
• Analytics show how your awareness changes over time
