How to Play
Welcome to Chess Masters Online's multiplayer chess game! Here you can play against opponents from around the world in real-time matches. The game below is ready for you to start playing immediately.
If you're new to chess or need a refresher on the rules, here are the basics:
1. The goal is to checkmate your opponent's king, which means the king is in a position to be captured and cannot escape.
2. Each piece moves differently: Pawns move forward but capture diagonally, Rooks move in straight lines, Knights move in an L-shape, Bishops move diagonally, the Queen can move in any direction, and the King moves one square in any direction.
3. Special moves include castling (a defensive move involving the king and rook), en passant (a special pawn capture), and pawn promotion (when a pawn reaches the opposite end of the board).
Enjoy your game and may the best player win!
