Chess is a two-player strategy board game played on a checkered board with 64 squares arranged in an 8×8 grid. Renowned for its intellectual challenge, chess boasts millions of players globally, from casual enthusiasts in their homes to serious competitors in renowned tournaments.

This game serves not only as a recreational activity but also as a mental exercise, enhancing players' tactical abilities, critical thinking, and memory retention. Suitable for all ages and skill levels—from novices to seasoned professionals—chess can be played anytime and anywhere without the need for an internet connection.

Each player starts with 16 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The dynamics of the game are dictated by the distinct movement patterns of each piece. The queen wields the most power, while the pawn has the least. The player with the white pieces always moves first. The objective is to checkmate the opponent's king, placing it under an unavoidable threat of capture.

A game may conclude with a voluntary resignation by one player when they find themselves at a significant disadvantage, although there are also several circumstances under which a game can end in a draw. Unlike games of chance, chess emphasizes tactics and strategy, allowing players to practice their analytical and creative skills.

Understanding the movement of chess pieces is fundamental:

  • Pawn: Moves one square forward or two squares on its first move; captures diagonally.
  • Rook: Moves any number of squares vertically or horizontally.
  • Bishop: Moves diagonally across squares of the same color.
  • Knight: Moves in an L-shape; can jump over other pieces.
  • Queen: Moves any number of squares in any direction.
  • King: Moves one square in any direction and cannot move into check.

The capture of an opponent's piece occurs when the attacking piece moves to its square, removing it from play. If a player’s king is in check, they must make a move to escape this situation; failure to do so results in checkmate and the loss of the game.

The features of chess include:

  • A robust chess engine with multiple difficulty levels to appeal to diverse skill sets.
  • An integrated move tracking and analysis table for improved gameplay understanding.
  • An undo option for correcting mistakes during play.
  • More than ten themes for custom chess boards and pieces.
  • Automatic saving of previous games for future reference.
  • The ability to share games in PGN format.
  • A classic board game experience with a lightweight application size under 9 MB.
  • Diverse levels of difficulty catering to children and adults alike, free to play.
  • The option to play against friends or compete with the computer.
  • Offline play capability without incurring costs.
