About this app

Chess game is a two player strategy board game played on a chessboard, a checkered game board with 64 squares arranged in an 8×8 grid, the game is played by millions of people worldwide. Chess is believed to have originated in India sometime before the 7th century.
Chess is played on a square board of eight rows called ranks and denoted with numbers 1 to 8 and eight columns called files and denoted with letters a to h. The colors of the 64 squares alternate and are referred to as light and dark squares. The chessboard is placed with a light square at the right-hand end of the rank nearest to each player.
The player with the white pieces always moves first. After the first move, players alternately move one piece per turn..

- The queen combines the power of a rook and bishop and can move any number of squares along a rank, file, or diagonal, but cannot leap over other pieces.
- The king moves one square in any direction. The king also has a special move called castling that involves also moving a rook.
- The rook can move any number of squares along a rank or file, but cannot leap over other pieces. Along with the king, a rook is involved during the king's castling move.
- The bishop can move any number of squares diagonally, but cannot leap over other pieces.
- The knight moves to any of the closest squares that are not on the same rank, file, or diagonal, thus the move forms an 'L'-shape: two squares vertically and one square horizontally, or two squares horizontally and one square vertically. The knight is the only piece that can leap over other pieces.
- The pawn can move forward to the unoccupied square immediately in front of it on the same file, or on its first move it can advance two squares along the same file, provided both squares are unoccupied (black dots in the diagram); or the pawn can capture an opponent's piece on a square diagonally in front of it on an adjacent file, by moving to that square black 'x's. A pawn has two special moves: the en passant capture and promotion.
