Qxd8# Just for fun, here's the "Natural Language" advice version: The Chessmaster recommends: Pawn to a8 with a queen promotion. "Analysis: You move your pawn to a8 with a queen promotion, which moves it to safety and forks Black's king and Black's knight at a6. Black counters by moving the king to d7, which moves it out of check and threatens your queen at a8. Your knight at c4 takes queen, which frees your queen at d4 from the pin and forks Black's rook at f7 and Black's king. Black answers with queen at f5 captures knight at e5, which pins your queen at d4 with a partial pin and removes the threat on Black's king and Black's rook at f7. Your queen at e4 takes queen at d5, which skewers Black's king and checks Black's king. Black responds with queen at c5 takes queen at d5, which removes the threat on Black's king and threatens your queen at d4 with a double-attack. Your queen at h1 captures queen, which skewers Black's king, disengages the pin on your rook at g1, protects your queen at d4, and checks Black's king. Black counters with pawn captures queen, which removes the threat on Black's king, attacks your queen at d4, and advances the passed pawn. Your queen at a8 takes pawn, which skewers Black's king, removes the threat on your queen at d4, and checks Black's king. Black responds with queen takes queen at d5, which removes the threat on Black's king and attacks your queen at d4. Your queen at b3 takes queen, which skewers Black's king, removes the threat on your queen at d4, and checks Black's king. Black replies by moving bishop to d6, which pins your knight and protects Black's king. Your queen takes bishop, which pins Black's pawn, skewers Black's king, frees your knight from the pin, and checks Black's king. Black is forced to move king to c8, which moves it out of check and pins your queen at d6 with a partial pin. Your queen takes queen, which checkmates Black's king. You can force checkmate in eight moves."
