# How to Win

**Objective**: Win by Kingslay, which is when you capture your opponent’s king. Unlike classic chess, Anichess has no check or checkmate concept due to spells.

**Draw**: When the same board position repeats three times or if both players make 50 consecutive moves without a pawn being moved or a piece being captured. Players can also agree to a draw or either player may resign at any time.

**Stalemate**: Stalemates do not exist because moving a king into check is not a concept
