   5   Before every move, players see only what their pieces can reach.
   6   That is to say: empty squares where your pieces can go,
   7   but also occupied squares where captures can be made.
   8   For example on the illustration next, after 1.e4 d5 white sees a black
   9   pawn on d5, the squares e5, f5, h5, b5, a6 and all four first ranks.
  10   The f5 square is visible (and empty) because of the
  11   special case of pawn capture.

  21   Choose your move carefully, based on what you can infer from the
  22   opponent's past moves. Counting material is important.
  23   Be careful to block the attacking lines toward your king too.
  24   Good luck!

  27   Note: the bot is not cheating - it really uses only the information
  28   described earlier. Moreover, it is very basic and clearly less
  29   challenging that a human. But it may be a fun start :)
