Chess for Dummies - How to start your Chess Game?

Chess for Dummies explains a game right from the start. Please read the comments to every single move as they apply for chess games in general and not just for this game. Apply those chess principles in your own games and work on yourself to become better and better.

  • Develop your chess pieces (pawns are not pieces) with EVERY move you make
  • Don't waste time making senseless pawn moves at the corner of the board that don't support your development! Time is measured in moves. Time units are called Tempis.
    1 move = 1 tempi
  • Bring your kingside pieces out first to be able to castle as fast as possible.
