There are 4 rooks(original) or more in a set of Chess.
This is because each player gets 2 rooks. Usually, it is 4 rooks, since there are 2 players, but there can be more if it is set to 1v1v1, 1v1v1v1, and so on.
There are a total of four Rooks at the start of the game .
Technically, no, since rooks aren't alive, unless you are talking about rookie players. However, you USE the rooks in ORDER to play chess. (I am referring to the chess pieces, not the Rookie players.)
There are 4 rooks on the board at the start of a game of normal chess.
Rooks are also referred to and resemble "castles".
Chess
The game is chess.
A fully set up chess board has, 2 Kings, 2 Queens, 4 Rooks, 4 Knights, 4 Bishops, and, 16 Pawns.
The rooks were the first pieces I learned to use in chess, because their horizontal and vertical movement pattern was so easy to remember. The rooks in England reminded me of the crows at home in Illinois.
