I'm not detecting much of game here. It feels more like a homework exercise. ID the attacks on the board. OK, done. Do it again. Repeat ad nauseum.

Depends on the skill I guess... My goal is to become faster at spotting this. Incredibly, sometimes I can't find an attack that's right there.

But I guess there are some way to gamify this more. I'll try that!

e: Oh and also there's "rush" where you play against the clock.
