Mouse Left Click – Select a piece and move it to a valid square. Drag and Drop – Drag a piece to its destination square. Esc – Pause the game or access the menu. Spacebar – Undo the last move (if available). Right Click – View piece options or special actions (if applicable). Play strategically, move your pieces wisely, and enjoy learning the game of chess! Before moving a piece, take a second to check whether it leaves your king exposed or hands your opponent an easy capture on the next turn. Controlling the center of the board early tends to give your pieces more options later in the game, so it's worth prioritizing over grabbing pieces on the edges. Try to think one or two moves ahead rather than reacting only to what's directly in front of you. With steady practice, reading the board will start to feel natural instead of overwhelming.
