CHESS

Here you find a vast selection of chessboards, pieces, books, computer programs, and more. Whether chess is the game of kings or the king of games is probably an eternal question. There are only 64 squares but an almost uncountable number of moves. Countless combinations and strategies can possibly unfold over the board, each of them unique. Beautiful chessboards and pieces, good books and computer programs help us to get started and to improve our play, or they are simply a source of inspiration. Many admire the intellectual beauty of the game, and please that there is seldom "the one" perfect solution to a given problem.
