A chess position, not a game (still very interesting though!)

to be more specific a snapshot of the board
Storing the game would give you the position though
It took me a moment to see your point: it might take less information to store the entire game using a chess engine by entropy coding than a single position
Yeah i guess after a certain number of moves it wouldn't but for the first half it would.
