The pieces in Chess are Pawn, Rook, Knight, Bishop, Queen, and King. Each piece has its own set of movements. There are some parallels between the moves of the various pieces. All but the knight move in a straight line – horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. If a bit or piece gets trapped in the corner of the board, it cannot go back on the other side. The edge of the board is a barrier that can’t be crossed. The knight and all other pieces except those that jump over others cannot leap over adjacent pieces – no spaces are allowed between the square where the piece starts its move and where it ends its movement. The game may not finish on a square currently occupied by a piece of the same color.
You could be learning about how chess pieces move. And you may have had a question in your head. What chess pieces can jump?
The knight can go through or jump over other pieces in chess. A knight moves in a typical L pattern and may leap over other pieces on its route.
I’ll go through which chess pieces can leap over other chess pieces and which ones can’t later in this section. So keep reading until the end.
