Some history

Chess is a game that has been around for a couple of centuries now, chessand the current powers and looks of the game came about in Spain around the late 15th century. The roots of chess can be traced back to 7th century India and Eastern strategy games. Now there are many championships held around the world.

In fact, in 1997 a computer beat the reigning world champ at that time.

How is it played?

Chess is played on a checkered black and white board. Each player starts off with 16 pieces that are arranged on each side of the board. The first-row closer to the player has the king and queen in the center and on each side a bishop, knight, and rook. The row in front of those pieces are the eight pawns. The player who has the white side goes first, and if playing on a timer, the game needs to be played fast if not can go on for hours.

When playing one must think three or four moves ahead including the possible reactions from the opponent and what a possible next move would be from you. It is a game that helps build one’s thinking and many intelligent minds like to play it on a regular basis.
