Managed to guess it on the first try after realising it looked like a real game. Bit sad to see only one puzzle per day. Sharing the result also reveils the solution in copied text, maybe remove that so someone could share the exact puzzle without immediatly seeing the solution.
The experiment is cool, but after this first attempt I wonder if it's not going to be too easy to guess in just one try lots of times.
It's really confusing to me that I drag a piece, I drop it on a square, it stays there, and there's an animation that the piece returns to the bottom. If it stays there, it shouldn't have a "returning" animation. Otherwise, it's an interesting puzzle.
- not every square with a ? needs to be filled
- a piece that's marked as yellow or green may appear more than once (if that's legal)
- you can see your previous guesses by clicking on the guess history squares
- the game shows you pieces that have been eliminated based on their background colour in the pieces list under the board
Todays matle.io had a few positions that were inconsequential to the mate itself and could be a lot of pieces other than the solution that could be reached through normal game so it's pretty much a guessing game.
