How to Play Chess
Learn the basics of chess and start playing like a pro in minutes
Learn the Pieces
Each piece moves differently. Pawns move forward, rooks move in straight lines, bishops diagonally, knights in L-shapes, queens anywhere, and kings one square at a time.
Understand the Goal
The objective is to checkmate your opponent's king. This means the king is under attack and cannot escape.
Control the Center
Control the center squares (d4, d5, e4, e5) with your pawns and pieces. This gives you more space and better piece mobility.
Practice & Play
The best way to improve is by playing! Start with our AI opponent and gradually increase the difficulty as you get better.
