The crowning glory with the more heavily weighted criteria are trophies such as queen sacrifice, mate with knight, rook captured, and many more.

 

Trophies are available in three levels: Bronce, Silver, Gold. For trivial trophies such as capturing back, for example, the event must occur ten times on the board before this trophy is awarded.

 

For more difficult criteria such as mate with bishop, a reward is given the first time.

 

The silver and gold trophies are awarded for repeating the trophy event very often.

 

The counted events are displayed in the engine window. The numbers show the distance to the next level, in this case silver.
