How it works

Take over the position. Finish the game.

Choose the opponent, take over the winning side, and play a new continuation until the game is finished.

What is Conversion Tower?

Conversion Tower is a winning position trainer. It lets you take over a real position from a professional chess game, play a new continuation against Stockfish, and prove that you can convert the advantage into a victory.

The run

  1. Choose a Stockfish strength: Easy (800), Medium (1400), Hard (2000), or Elite (2400).
  2. Receive a winning position extracted from a real professional game.
  3. Play your own new continuation against Stockfish. There is no single required move or predetermined line.
  4. Win the complete game to advance to the next floor, where the starting advantage is smaller.
  5. A loss, draw, resignation, timeout, or loss of winning material consumes a life.

Position advantage and opponent strength

Buckets represent initial advantages that become harder to convert, from Mate 1, Mate 2, and Mate 3 through +10 down to +1. Stockfish strength represents the resistance of the opponent and is selected independently.

The tower shows progress through the run. It does not define the purpose of the training: converting a winning chess position does.
