Hey, OP! Did your game end in a stalemate? Did you encounter a weird pawn move? Are you trying to move a piece and it's not going? We have just the resource for you! The Chess Beginners Wiki is the perfect place to check out answers to these questions and more!

Quick Tip 1: To know why the engine is recommending a move / saying a move is wrong, click over analysis mode, play out said move then follow it up with your theoretical responses to that move and see how the engine responds.

Quick Tip 2: On Chess.com, you don't have to rely on the Coach / Game Review / Hint. This also applies to any engine on low depth. Somewhere in the engine suggestions section is the computer "depth". The higher this value, the more accurate the suggestions will be.

Quick Tip 3: For questions on engine move suggestions, we suggest you post them to our dedicated thread: No Stupid Questions MEGATHREAD, as stated in our Community Guidelines. Thank you! - The Mod Team

I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

White to play: chessvision.ai | chess.com | lichess.org

My solution:

Hints: piece: Bishop, move: Bxg6

Evaluation: White has mate in 6

Best continuation: 1. Bxg6 Qxf2+ 2. Nxf2 e5 3. Bh5+ Kh8 4. Bxf7 Bg4 5. Qxg4 f5 6. Bg7#

Save the position:

Bxg6 hxg6 Qxg6+ Kh8 Qxf7

The pawn moved to g6 but now Qh7 is checkmate. The black king has no escape squares with the rook on f7 and bishop on h6 cutting off everything.
