Medieval Europeans played Chess, though it was really a game for wealthy people because chess pieces were expensive. It began to be played about the year 900, but was a bit different than the modern game. It developed during the Middle Ages, becoming more and more like what it is today, and was mostly as it now is by the year 1475.
