Chess 960

Chess 960 was developed in June 19, 1996 at Buenos Aires, Argentina. It was developed by former World Champion Bobby Fischer. Chess 960 is also known as Fischer Random Chess. It was developed by Shuffle Chess so that castling is possible for all starting positions. This chess invariant emphasizes on the talent and the creativity of the person, rather than memorizing various traditional chess openings. This is done by randomizing initially various chess positions. Before the game starts, the pieces are randomly placed. These positions are subjected to certain rules and regulations. After this, the game is played like a normal chess game. In this, pieces and pawns have normal moves and the objective of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king.

  1. Basically in games new rules and types are added for two reasons, to make that game further interesting or to make more convenience for players. But chess is always being an exception for these, every change or upgrade of the game will always make the players to think vast.
