About CT-ART 6.0

CT-ART is the tactics course that pre-dates Chessable by two decades. Version 6.0 bundles five programs — from the beginner-oriented Chess Tactics for Beginners up through the infamous CT-ART proper (2000+ rated puzzles organized by theme). Published by Convekta/ChessOK, and now accessible inside the Chess King Learn app on iOS/Android or as a standalone Windows download. If you're an intermediate grinding patterns and find Chess.com puzzles too noisy, this is the curated, rating-laddered alternative.

Pros

  • 10,000+ hand-curated themed tactics
  • Rigorous difficulty ladder unlike random feeds
  • One-time price, no subscription
  • Still the gold-standard curated tactics set

Cons

  • Dated UI — feels like 2010 software
  • Windows version lacks cloud sync
  • ChessOK storefront UX is painful
