Getting more from my Lichess game analysis

I play almost entirely on Lichess and usually request computer analysis after games, but I still end up staring at engine lines trying to work out what the important mistake actually was. Seeing that a move lost 1.5 or 2 points is useful, but I’d rather have the moves graded and get a short explanation of why the bad ones caused problems, especially when there wasn’t an obvious blunder. Is there a Lichess game analysis tool that gives a more Game Review-style breakdown instead of just leaving you to interpret the engine yourself?

works when you hung a rook, but it doesn’t help much when the position got worse because of a trade or a pawn move that looked harmless. Try DecodeChess and load the PGN from Lichess there. It explains what changed in the position and which threats you missed. The move labels aren’t exactly like Game Review, but the explanations are much easier to follow than a list of Stockfish variations.

A slow collapse is much harder to review than a clean blunder. The evaluation can stay fairly close for several moves while you keep making the position harder to play. You can use this Lichess game analysis tool here: https://chessgrader.com/ . Enter your Lichess username or paste the PGN, then choose the game you want to review. It gives the moves grades and short explanations, so you can see which decision started the trouble without digging through every engine branch.
