White moved last.
Please help 🙂
or Na8-c7 alt. Na8xc7
or Rb4-b5 alt. Rb4xb5
Is the problem that there is only one possible move...?

There are a few possible last moves. What I need is not the last moves but a complete game score (which of course is not unique). It is probably not very difficult but somehow I always make a mistake and get stuck.
The general structure of the game, without giving many specific moves, will also help.
general structure = which piece captured which, in what order, in what order did the pieces come to their final squares, etc.

wPg2 is not on the board, and could not have been captured; it must have promoted.
Retraction could run: 1.Rb4 Bb5 2.Ka4 Be2 3.Rg4 Nb5 4.Ra3 Nd4 5.b5 cb6[+R] 7.Rc3 Kc5 8.Rcg3 etc. The 3rd Rook is the promoted g-pawn.
Edit: This is a good enough hint to allow construction of a PG. Giving the whole thing would be a bit tedious. 🙂
