4About it
Chess is a game for two players on a board of 64 squares. Each side starts with 16 pieces (a king, a queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights and eight pawns), and the goal is to checkmate the other king: to attack it so that it has no way out.
The board is set up for the Opera Game, played in Paris in 1858 at the opera house, where Paul Morphy beat the Duke of Brunswick and Count Isouard in 17 moves. Press play in the bar under the board to watch it, or tap a piece and then a square to play your own moves. In the Splash tab you can open or paste any game written in PGN, the usual way of writing down chess games.
