We want to discuss in this Club about any kind of 3-Dimensional or Multidimensional versions of Chess; sometimes also referred to as HyperChess. All these are Chess variants using spaces with more than the two dimensions of the traditional game; as long as the proposed variants are open source and available to everyone.
We may start with the Kubikschach, proposed by Lionel Kieseritzky in 1851,
already producing an 8x8x8 board and greek letters for the third dimension. Soon followed with the Raumschach by Ferdinand Maack in 1907.
Through the Tri-Dimensional Chess proposed in the famous Star Trek TV episodes and movies.
Up to the most recent proposals, also featuring a large number of pieces, as the 3D-GrandChess.
Members can feel free to propose variations, discussing those proposed by other members, make comments, critiques and suggestions, always in a civil and respectful manner.
Creators of new variants are welcome to showcase their creations; as well as anyone who want to propose improvements to other variants, with a constructive attitude and respect for civil discussions, or just to have more fun.
People good at handicrafts, who can make the physical structures to play the games, are welcome in this club too. Likewise amateur or professional programmers who can create animations and platforms for virtual and/or online play are also highly valued here.
The aim is to provide soon a free space in this Club where members could play 3d Chess variants online.
