How to play the Hidden chess game on FB messenger

    Yea!.. does the header sound confusing of quite surprising??!!. Don't be surprised, in case you don't know, the FB messenger has a hidden chess game in it as well as a football game and basketball also, I already talked about those two in the previous posts
     So do you like chess, thanks to Zuckerberg, you can now do something extra cool with the Fb messenger whenever your bored. I don't wanna talk too much, so I'll just go straight to how to access the game and how you go about playing it

     To access the game, simply open up a conversation with a friend and type "@fbchess play" to start a game. Then you use standard algebraic notation to move your pieces, prefacing every instruction with the command "@fbchess."
   
     For example ,  "@fbchessPe4" would move your pawn (P) to square E4, ( you get that?!!)
    Now, here are the basics: K is for king, Q for queen, B for bishop, N for knight, R for rook, and P for pawn. If you need to specify which piece you're moving, you can add its location to the command. Example "Nbd2" will move the knight in the b file (the vertical column) into square d2. Use the command "x" to take a piece (e.g. B2xc5 will have your bishop in the second rank, or horizontal row, to square c5); the command "=" to promote a pawn to a queen (e.g. e8=Q); and the command "0-0-0" to castle.
     You can also use "@fbchess resign" to end a match, also get your  statistics with "@fbchess stats," and pick which color you start with by typing "@fbchess play white" or "@fbchess play black." (If you don't specify your color will be assigned automatically. As usual in chess, white goes first.)


* always remember to add the "@" before any command and you can also type  @fbchesshelp for more info that I didn't mention.. the game is quite complicated I don't seem to remember all the command

 Think I'm lieing??!! Check it out, I was shocked the first time I tried it too
