In the following game marcel played 166 moves with her queen and her queen visited 46 squares
Her g7 pawn made the first move in move 225

I wonder if there is some software that can take a big pgn and find:
1)What is the biggest number of moves that one piece moved during the game.
2)What is the biggest number of squares that a piece visited during the game.
3)What is the biggest number of move that was the first move of a piece during the game.

I would like to know the records for known human chess games.

Hi Uri,

thats interesting!

Maybe I can added one question in your thread?

I am looking often for stalemate positions with many, better most, pieces on board (human chess or computer chess).

I will follow the thread, your questions are indeed interesting!!

Best
Frank

Chess Query Language can help you filter and sort collections of games by complicated criteria, provided you are willing to spend some time to learn the syntax.

There are also various collections of example CQL queries that you can learn from and adapt. For example, you may be interested in differentsquares.cql, from this collection, which performs many of the counting and matching tasks you would need to answer your own questions.
