説明
Detective Chess is a puzzle game based on the rules of Chess. Five pieces are placed on a chessboard - you are told what squares they are on, but not which one is on which square. You have to deduce the position of each from the number of times certain squares are attacked. There's only one solution.
遊び方
Just move the pieces to the correct position on the board using the mouse! Press 'Guess' when you think you are right (of course there should be no guessing involved!) More details are available via the in-game menu.
開発者アップデート
Version 2.0 of Detective Chess is now out. You can generate puzzles with up to ten pieces.

Great game. Makes you think. Read your response to Dejection (Dec. 10, 2011) and agree with you. Even though a space is double covered (Q,R example), only one can attack (the rook in your example). So your game is correct, there is only one solution. I almost made the same mistake, but took a second look at the board. You have to look at all the squares not just the ones being attacked. In my mind, I compare this to sudoku. Only certain numbers will satisfy a row or column. Same with this game. Only certain pieces will satisfy the equation. Gave this game 5/5.

This game has incorrect solutions in it. Its really frustrating when you figure it out and it says you're wrong just to have it tell you an incorrect solution. Needs fixing.
If you can send a screenshot of such an incorrect solution to me (gerry@bindweed.com) I'll take a look and get back to you. I bet it's that you are forgetting pieces don't attack through each other, though! For example if a row has .Q.R.... the four squares to the right of the Rook are attacked once only. In a chess game we might think of them as doubly controlled, but still only the Rook can capture on those squares right now.
