:marseychessknight: maxxers, is this game winnable?

I dun did a 40 move-er and got bamboozled into a tie.

Can this even be won? https://i.rdrama.net/images/17116980668399339.webp

If you're white, you're fricked and get a checkmate against you in minimum 11 moves unless the black player plays really stupidly.

Bro the frick you doing? Now you probably gotta chase his king to the other side of the board with your king and knight. Queen that darn pawn already.

What's that pawn doing then? King + Knight + Queen is checkmate

The pawn can't advance without being taken by the white king. The knight can't move because it's protecting the pawn. The black king can't do anything useful, since moving to guard the pawn also blocks the white king into stalemate.

Oh I'm r-slurred I didn't see the letters on the board were backwards and the board was flipped.

It's still possible to do, he just needs to move the knight out of the way, force white king to the top row and defend the pawn with his king to queen it.
