Introduction: Chess has been around for many years, as long as over 1500 years, and while many people still play the game, there are still lots of people that haven't been introduced to it. While chess is a game that requires skill and strategy, it isn't that hard to learn, and my job is introduce people into the world of chess so that they can see what all the game has to offer. My project will use the block based programming language of Scratch, which will be beneficial for first time users in an effort to showcase Chess in a simple way. While playing the game, users will go against the AI, in an attempt to learn how to play the game in a fun and easy way. With that being said, intermediate/advanced chess players can play the game too because the game will allow these specific players to learn how to finish a chess game much faster.
Driving Question: How can the game of chess be introduced in a more easy simpler way so that more people can begin to look at chess as something that's not so complex to learn?
