Chess is played on a checkered board with 64 squares arranged in an 8×8 grid. Each player begins with 16 pieces: 1 king, 1 queen, 2 rooks, 2 knights, 2 bishops, and 8 pawns. Each of the six piece types moves differently, with the most powerful being the queen and the least powerful the pawn. The white player always move first. The objective is to kill the opponent’s king by placing it under an inescapable threat of capture. This is called checkmate.

The game can be won by voluntary resignation of the opponent, which typically occurs when too much chess pieces is lost. There are also a few ways that a game can end in a draw.

Chess is not a game of chance, it is based on tactics and strategy, helping the player can practice the thinking and creativity.

How to move the chess pieces?

Pawn: Move one square forward or two square at the first move. Pawns can capture one square diagonally in front of them.

Rook: Move to any position horizontally or vertically.

Bishop: Move diagonally to the square of the same color.

Knight: There are 2 knights for each player on the chessboard, between the rook and bishop. It moves in the L shape.

Queen: Can be moved to any position on the chessboard of horizontal, vertical or diagonal.

King: Move one space in any direction and never move in to check.

When capturing an opponent's piece, the attacking piece 🎯 will move to that square and the captured piece will be removed from the chessboard.

If the king is in check, the player needs to move to get out of check. If not, the king is checkmated & the player loses.
