Chess 2D is a two-dimensional strategy game played on a square board divided into 64 squares of alternating colors. The board is set up with the rooks in the corners, the knights next to them, the bishops next to them, the queen on her own color, and the king on the remaining square of the queen's color. The pawns are placed in front of the other pieces.

Each player starts with 16 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The goal of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king, which means the king is in a position to be captured (in "check") and cannot escape capture (mate). Players take turns moving their pieces, with the aim of putting their opponent's king in checkmate. The chess board consist of 8x8 square, 8 rows and 8 columns.

The chess pieces have different move pattern and abilities, the pawns can only move forward, one square at a time, but they can capture diagonally. The rooks can move vertically or horizontally, the knights move in an L-shape, the bishops can move diagonally, and the queen can move in any direction, vertically, horizontally or diagonally. The king can move in any direction, but only one square at a time.

The game of chess is won by placing the opponent's king under attack in a situation where the opponent has no legal move to remove the threat of capture (checkmate). A player can also win by the opponent resigning, or by the opponent running out of time. A game can also end in a draw, for example, if both players are unable to checkmate each other, or if a stalemate occurs.
