Chess is a complex board game utilizing various numbers of individual playing pieces, which move in various ways on an 8x8 square grid. The basic form is a two-player game using alternating single turns, in which the object is to attack the main piece ("King") of one's opponent while protecting one's own King from attack. The game may end in victory for either player, or as a "draw", or tied game, in which neither is victorious. Strategy is involved in movement and positions, and removal of opposing pieces by occupying the squares they inhabit. Attacking the opponent "King" so that it cannot be removed from attack is "checkmate" (from the Arabic "shah mat" : "the king is dead"), the only way in which a game can be won except through resignation. Tournament play also involves clock timing to allow equal contemplation by opponents, while still establishing a finite period for the completion of games and the competition as a whole. The complete rules are too lengthy for enumeration here. (See the indicated links.)

The rule of chess is, depending on the game, must save your king. You must move the pieces the correct way and if the same move is repeated for both you and your opponent, it is called a draw. In some circumstances you must move the piece once you touch it. Other times, when you let go of your piece. You claim a win by either capturing your opponents king or checkmating him which is attacking your opponent's king and he has no where to move.
