What is Classic Chess?
Classic Chess is indeed the timeless board game of strategy and skill, played by millions in the world! It is a multiplayer game where you compete with another player across an 8x8 grid checkmating his king. Whether you play with your friend or with a machine, it's always an unending game of wits and strategy.
How to Play
Simple! You and your opponent move one piece per turn, alternately. Select a piece by clicking or tapping, then click or tap one of the valid squares on the grid to put that piece down. Please note: each piece moves differently: a pawn moves forward one square; a rook moves in any straight line; a knight moves in an L shape; a bishop goes diagonally; a queen can move in any direction; and the king moves one square in any direction (but it must be cautious when under check!).
Play & Objective
The gcd of your victory is to checkmate your opponent's king-that means put it in a condition of being under attack from which it cannot escape. If the king is captured, you win! If not, the game proceeds until one player checkmates the other's or agrees to a draw.
