Hello. Do you know any free training software (website) when one can train visualisation of the chessboard and pieces?

en.lichess.org --> 'training' --> 'coordinate' is quite good :)

http://chesseye.alexander-fleischer.de/o/ and http://en.chessfish.com/content/chess-blindfold-trainer/ are some other sites.

I don't use software to practise visualisation. What I do is simply to pick up a book of annotated games and set one up to a typical middlegame position. I then read the next three moves (6 ply) and work on fixing that position in my head. I then add another couple of moves and fix that. I then add a few more etc and then either keep going for as long as I can or move to the position I visualised, check it and then go somemore. In my opinion this is a simple but very effective method to train visualisation.

Thank you very much for your helpful responses. I will certainly try both methods - the software (as it is easy and quick) and the OTB technique (which is closer to the natural playing environment).

I've once seen a program in which you can play the game without seeing one/two/three etc. (depending on settings) last moves. I don't remember this program, though. Can anybody help?
