Весьма удобные и интересные программы, разбиты по темам. Неплохая вещь.

Good exercises, decent amount for free, there are ads but they're not very intrusive. A substantial improvement from computer generated puzzles.

It's called "elementary" but anyone under 1400 FIDE or 1600 online rating will greatly improve with this set. For lower rated players like myself, I get to practise quick pattern recognition initially by doing it in chapters ( for instance pawn forks only, bishop pins only) At higher levels by randomizing, it can test your tactical vision. There is a huge difference in "spot the discovered check vs White to play and win". I will come back to this set many times for the next 2 years

Aufgaben aus den Turnieren. Lösbar! Ein super Baukasten-Schachsystem. Schwierigkeitsgrad in ELO angegeben. Kommt jemand nicht weiter, kann er den/die Züge sich anzeigen lassen. Volle Sternchenanzahl!

Именно с этого приложения новичкам следует начинать тренировать тактику - здесь преобладают простые упражнения. Потом - "Простые тактики". "От простого к сложному" можно изучать параллельно, п.ч. там и простенькие задачи, и весьма сложные для начинающих (как и видно из названия).
