I'm a little confused about the rules of chess. Can you help me out?

Sure, I can help!  Chess is played on a board with 64 squares arranged in an 8x8 grid. Each player has 16 pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops, and eight pawns. The goal of the game is to capture your opponent's king. To do this, you must move your pieces around the board so that they are able to attack the opposing king. You can also use your pieces to defend against attacks from your opponent.
