a chess piece that is the weakest but most important piece whose capture ends the game
The king is the most important piece in chess, and the game ends when a player's king is checkmated. It can move one square in any direction: horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Although the king is not very mobile or powerful compared to other pieces, its safety is crucial. A player must always ensure their king is protected from being captured, as placing the king in a position where it can be captured is called check. The king also participates in a special move called castling, which helps safeguard it by moving it to a less vulnerable position.
