This is really crazy and fun, a spherical chess board. What do you think?

I think that might turn you into a well-rounded chess player

I think you should make it into a shirt and sell it with something cute like what was said.

Wait, so how are the pieces aligned in the "center", or the "poles"? I'm so confused!

This is like discovering that the Earth is spherical, at its poles respectively, the magnetized pawns become. All perceptions are valid, look what I found browsing, they really exist. I guess, in the near future, this may be another 3D online challenge for web3 in the Metaverse.

Ahhh! Well, that makes sense. I was thinking there'd be a point of singularity at the poles where every piece was occupying the same "square", if you will. Thanks for sharing! Not sure I could play on one of these. I'm a 2d chess person 😂

I love your comments. Although I learned about chess in books, I later played it at the beginning of the internet, but recently I was hit hard by the pandemic with my son. Now we learn and play together, we share a passion. The future is just around the corner, if it's not chess.com, maybe it's another new room that brings us 3D.thumbup

I wonder what a Mercator Projection of this board would look like.
