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.
