Rapid Chess

Rapid chess is a variation of standard chess where each player has a limited amount of time, typically between 10 to 60 minutes for all moves. This faster pace requires quicker decision-making and strategic thinking, making the game more dynamic and exciting. Unlike classical chess, where players may spend long periods analyzing each move, rapid chess prioritizes efficiency while still maintaining the depth of the game. It is popular in tournaments for its balance of skill and speed, offering a thrilling experience for players and spectators alike without sacrificing the complexity that makes chess engaging.
