This turns into a mildly frustrating riddle as some of the challenges are random (captcha, Street View, chess challenge) and end up making it impossible to continue. Got my number added up from the captcha and the best chess move came to be Qh6 (I would need a chess master to disagree with me) so I'm already busted on the add to 25 and then it tells me the "Qh6" notation is illegal (Ok, I was never good with chess notation but I'm pretty sure that says Queen to H6...)

I ended up refreshing the captcha until I got one with only one number, in order to get around that kind of issue.

If it included a check Qh6+ could have been the answer?

Yeah I think there's a bug with the chess notation, I also had it tell me Rh3 was illegal notation. Interestingly Rf3 is not illegal notation but an illegal move for me.

  I thought I had this issue, but it turned out I had to remember the "+" at the end, when I put my opponent in check

    THANK YOU! I was stuck not knowing the "+". In my case it was a check mate.

I also had to figure out how to enter chess notation. As it turns out you have to add "x" after the piece if you want to capture or "+" suffix for check.

  Ah. That might be it... Anyhow after staring at that chess challenge I was sure to get a mate in two moves with the Qh6 but the captcha filled with numbers plus the add to 25 left me with only 3 to spare... So no way am I winning this game.

    You can refresh the captcha. I had to a couple of times.

  For the chess solution I ended up putting a breakpoint in the Javascript. To each their own.

The "two digit periodic table symbol" is also arbitrary - it has to be initial caps! Then if you refresh the page, the random stuff resets, so I gave up at that point with !marchpepsidn26n2555VIIVabout where "dn26n" is random captcha.

Yeah, I got Croatia in the Geoguessr section, which means I can't possibly multiply roman numerals to 35, since C is 100.

  You can use a lowercase c, and it won't count as a roman numeral.

You can regenerate the captcha at any time.

Yeah, I'm stuck on the chess part too. Figured out how to put black in check, figured out the notation, including the +, but it doesn't agree that's the best move. Put the positions into a chess engine... it agrees with me with what the best move is. Fun game though, I laughed out loud at the Wordle requirement.
