Kxc8 wins easily. This is too easy.
Kxc8 is surely a draw.
1. h6 would seem to be the winning move to me.
a few variations seem possible
1….Nb6+
1….Kh5
1….f7xg6
But I can’t find a way to stop the white pawn after any of them
1. Nf4 i think
1. h6 .. Kg5/h5
2. h7 .. Kh6
3. Nf8 .. Kg7
4. Nxf7
wow
its a delicious one. lemme try this
1. h6 Kh5
2. h7 Kh6
3. Nf8 Kg7
4. Nxf7!!!!!!!!!

i dunno m right or not. but hey, can we have more like this one? 🙂
Pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaase
1. h6 Kh5
2. h7 Ne7!
3. Kxe7 Kh6
4. Nf8 Kg7
5. Nhg6 (If Nxf7 stalemate) fxg6
6. Ke6 g5
7. Kf5 g4
8. Kxg4 Kh8
9. Kf5 Kg7
and it’s a draw!
So next
1. h6 Kh5
2. h7 Ne7!
3. Ke8 the only way!
Try now… you are on the right way and the continuations are really delightful!
