Almost by definition, a 1-move checkmate chess problem has to be easy to solve.
But what happens when the board is full of pieces and the winning move is hidden from logic and mocks the desperation of the chess player who searches and searches but cannot find something that should theoretically be so simple?
This one that we present to you below is known as the most difficult checkmate in 1 in the world (the solution is at the bottom of the note)
The most difficult Check
Mate in 1 in the world. They play white and win. Solution at the bottom of this note.
There are many checks that the target can give in this position, but... which of them actually gives mate?
Some say that this problem even gives Grandmasters headaches.
Besides a chess problem, this is a lateral thinking problem. That is, you have to think a little beyond the apparent reality to solve it. And that's the best clue we can give you.
There are many who criticize this issue and accuse it of hiding vital information. To us it's simply beautiful and comically mischievous.
What do you think? You like me? Were you able to fix it?

Solution: 1. dxe6++ (Black can't block with f6 because of the white rook on b7).
None of all the other checks White can give is mate, Black always has a way out.
