The queen takes on d4
White has just won a knight. The queen recapture puts the pieces level and the queen in the center.

Position from the game
White's dark-squared bishop has just taken your knight on d4. For this one move they are up a piece, 34 to 31. Your queen on d8 can take the bishop back. Depth 16 already scores the position +2.79 from your side, because it assumes that recapture. The white king is still on e1.
Stockfish 16 · your side

Positive means the engine liked your position. This is the recorded score only. It is not an accuracy stat.

Habit: picture the move already played, then look only for their checks and captures. Do it again when you are ahead.
How to read the numbers
Evals show up only where the attached Stockfish files recorded them. Depth 20 is the recheck on Rd8, Qf3+, Bxf8, and Kg3. Depth 16 is the broader pass on the rest. Positive is from your side. Piece points are a counting aid. There is no accuracy percentage.
