chess

Movement: Each type of piece moves differently. For example, bishops move diagonally, rooks move in straight lines, and knights move in an “L” shape.

Turns: Players alternate turns, moving one piece at a time.

Check & Checkmate: When a king is threatened, it is in check. If it cannot escape, it’s checkmate, and the game ends.

Special moves:

Castling: A move involving the king and a rook.

En passant: A special pawn capture.

Promotion: When a pawn reaches the other side, it can be promoted to another piece (usually a queen).
