About Game
Classic chess is a turn-based board game for two players played on an 8x8 board with 64 squares.
Each side controls 16 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights and eight pawns.
The goal is to checkmate the opponent’s king using standard classical chess rules.
You can play against an artificial intelligence bot or against a real opponent.
How to play
The objective is to checkmate the opponent’s king, putting it under attack so it cannot escape capture on the next move.
The king moves one square in any direction to a safe square that is not under attack.
The queen moves any number of squares along a rank, file or diagonal without jumping over pieces.
The rook moves any number of squares horizontally or vertically as long as no pieces block its path.
The bishop moves any number of squares diagonally on its color, without jumping over pieces.
The knight moves in an L-shape: two squares in one direction and then one square perpendicular, and can jump over pieces.
The pawn moves forward one square (with special first-move options and captures diagonally) according to classical chess rules.
Players move alternately on the 8x8 board, following standard chess rules, either against an AI bot or a human opponent.
