Chess is a two-player strategy board game played on an eight-by-eight checkered board. The goal is to capture the opponent's king, called checkmate. Players take alternating turns moving one piece at a time. Each piece moves differently - pawns move forward one square, knights make an L-shaped jump, bishops and rooks move diagonally and vertically/horizontally any number of squares, the queen combines bishop and rook movement, and the king moves one square in any direction. Games may also be played with a time control where the player loses if their time runs out.

4. General Rules of Chess
The goal of the game is to capture or trap you
opponent´s King, and this is called “Checkmate”
White always moves first & players take alternating
turns, moving one chess piece at a time
Each chess piece has its own movement.A piece may
capture an opponent´s piece or move to an unclaimed
square.
A piece is captured by landing on the appropriate
square with the moving piece and removing the
defending piece from play

5. How to setup the
chessboard
• Your right side end square should be white
• White king should be in black square and
vice versa

7. The Pawn
• Can only move forward, from its original
starting position it can move two spaces,
but if it is not in its original position it can
only move one space.The Pawn can only
capture one square diagonally forward.

8. The Knight:
• Moves from one corner to another any 2x3
set of squares (L shaped jump). It is the only
piece that can jump over another chess
piece

9. The Bishop:
• Moves any number of squares diagonally.
There are two bishops for each player, one
black and one white. Black bishop can only
move in black diagonals and white bishop in
white

• Moves any number of squares horizontally
or vertically

11. The Queen
