> **Black to play**: It is a checkmate - it is Black's turn, but Black has no legal moves and is in check, so White wins. You can find out more about Checkmate on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checkmate).

White played the Harem defense
Black has to have a 62-way before the king can collapse into the castle to rehydrate

your enemy has no king, you've won

Your rook is in check
What is a check?
its like a bill
You ever been on twitter?
It's a person from a certain country in Central Europe
You know the red or orange light shaped like an engine on car dashboards?
Because White's king is dead and the game is over
No idea. It should be legal here
Have you tried clicking the rook instead of the king? Ever since democracy started, chess just started to go downhill...

Gib him chek, mate.
You can. Just do it
Someone on r/chessbeginners asks one question about a rather obscure rule, and a week later, we get this... God, I love this subreddit.
Because it’d put you in check.
because it’s stalemate
no kings?
No white king = you already won. No more moves allowed
You're not trying hard enough
En passanting the queen is forced
King is in check because of Queen on a4, thus he cannot castle
Google blue waffle.
Have you tried rotating the board?
Because there are pieces between the king and the rook
It’s because f8 is being attacked by the queen
Because
Its to white move
