Chess is one of the more ancient games that are still being played today and it is something that many people tend to be enthusiastic about. Although it is thought to have its roots around the year 600, it was about the year 1000/1200 when the rules of the game began to be changed to something that was similar to what is being played today. Throughout the centuries leading up to the modern game that is played, many major changes were made but during the 19th century, the organization of the game and the playing of it were progressing very quickly.
Today, the game of chess is played on a board of 64 squares, alternating between light and dark squares. There are 16 playing pieces, including eight pawns, a king, queen, two rooks, two knights and two bishops. The game is either played casually, or it is played where each move is timed and you must make your move before the timer expires. Competitions are held worldwide but even in living rooms around the world, you will find the game being enjoyed by people, young and old alike.
If you would like to begin playing this game for yourself, you have many options that are open to you. One thing that you are absolutely going to need to have, however, is going to be a board and playing pieces. Your choice of pieces is going to differ, depending upon your individual likes and dislikes as well as the board itself, with some people enjoying a 3D chess board while others enjoying one that is more flat. Be sure that you look into the options that you have available and choose a board that is to your liking. Then you can enjoy playing the game for yourself.
