lichess doesn't have the fancy game review but it still tells you whether it's inaccurate, good, great, etc.

[hasty iris]

but i recommend it for lower rated players cause using the engine on its own is a bit too hard

[grim edge]

puzzles

[hasty iris]

lichess

[silent spear]

lichess has unlimited puzzles and analysis

[grim edge]

how many puzzles solved is a good amount?

[silent spear]

lichess has unlimited explorer, puzzles, analysis for free when cc adds that to premium like it's not free

[dreamy siren]

Brilliant moves on cc misrepresent reality. The way the algorithm for brilliant moves works is that it calls moves that are a sacrifice that isn't bad brilliant even though in reality they often are like 2 or 3 move calcutions that aren't hard to find in reality. The fact to the matter is some sacrifices that work aren't that impressive to find and some good moves that aren't sacrifices are impressive to find but cc doesn't represent that properly at all.
