9. Chess
Chess is a game played between two opponents on opposite sides of a
board containing 64 squares of alternating colors. Each player has 16
pieces: 1 king, 1 queen, 2 rooks, 2 bishops, 2 knights, and 8 pawns. The
goal of the game is to checkmate the other king. Checkmate happens
when the king is in a position to be captured (in check) and cannot
escape from capture.
Movement of the Pieces
Pawn
The pawn moves differently depending on whether it moves to an
empty square or whether it takes a piece of the opponent. When a
pawn does not take, it moves one square straight forward. When this
pawn has not moved at all. i.e., the pawn is still at the second row
(from the owning players view), the pawn may make a double step
straight forward. For instance, a white pawn on d2 can be moved to
d4. When taking, the pawn goes one square diagonally forward.
Rook
The rook moves in a straight line, horizontally or vertically. The rook
may not jump over other pieces, That is: all squares between the
square where the rook starts its move and where the rook ends its
move must be empty. As for all pieces, when the square where the
rook ends his move contains a piece of the opponent, then this piece is
taken. The square where the rook ends his move may not contain a
piece of the player owning this rook.
Bishop
The bishop moves in a straight diagonal line. Like the rooks, the bishop
also may not jump over other pieces.
Knight
The knight makes a move that consists of first one step in a horizontal
or vertical direction, and then one step diagonally in an outward
direction. The knight jumps: it is allowed that the first square that the
knight passes over is occupied by an arbitrary piece.
Queen
The queen has the combined moves of the rook and the bishop, i.e.,
the queen may move in any straight line, horizontal, vertical, or
diagonal.
King
The king moves one square in any direction, horizontally, vertically, or
diagonally.
