An original 'KQNNPP vs kqrrp' mate in 5 chess problem generated autonomously by Chesthetica using the fairly new computational creativity approach called the 'DSNS'. You can learn more about the DSNS here. The largest endgame tablebase in existence today is for 7 pieces (Lomonosov) which contains over 500 trillion positions, most of which have not and never will be seen by human eyes. This problem with 11 pieces goes even beyond that and was therefore composed without any such help whatsoever.

A seemingly earlier version of Chesthetica on a problem composed later (based on the date and time stamp) simply means that version may have been running on a different computer or operating system user account. White actually has less material than Black. The white army is down by about 3 (Shannon) pawn units in value. Try to solve this puzzle. Do try some of the others in the series as well before you go. Collectively, these puzzles are intended to cater to players of all levels.
