<human>:  How do you play the game of chess?
<bot>: To play chess, you need to understand the basic rules and layout of the game. Every game starts with all the pieces in their initial positions. Players then alternate turns, starting with the player with the white pieces. On each turn, a player can either move one of their pieces to a different square, or capture an opponent's piece by moving their own piece to the square occupied by the opponent's piece. The goal of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king, meaning the king is in a position to be captured and can't move out of attack.
