You should just be able to submit a ticket in the #support thread. If you're not comfortable with using the bot to verify then I can manually verify you if you create a ticket.

Yes! 2 rooks + king is enough to mate 1 king.

Btw there is a spreadsheet board editor in the discord server!

A really interesting piece could be a rook/bishop/queen that can only move a prime number of squares, like it can move 2 or 3 or 5 squares but not 1 or 4 or 6

Hi, I want to know when player vs computer will come, I know or believe that it would take a while making a AI to discover moves without out moving up (not including infinity) a indescribable amount of spaces. This project is an amazing idea with all the new pieces but an amazing piece would be a queen that could move like a knight and has the problem of the king that you HAVE to protect it and if you don’t you lose. I just love this idea and its already fun playing with friends and family.

It doesn't exist

It does, there is a black noticeable line that spans about a normal chess length

Hi. This will be the forum where I post updates on the development of the Infinite Chess site I am creating, www.InfiniteChess.org! For the first time in history, you can now play live Infinite Chess games!
Join the official discord server! https://discord.gg/NFWFGZeNh5

I have many more features planned, including:

  • An elo-rating system with a leaderboard.
  • Play against computer.
  • Board editor, with option to play an online game using your layout!
  • Perspective view.
  • Layouts of infinitely many pieces.

... and more! Follow for updates, and also come here to help find games!

I created a similar program years back for moderating infinite chess games (including the popular NEISG), but the drawback was it was tricky to install, not web-based, and not well optimized. This new version is easily accessible to all! Excited to see what community content arises!


This is an indie project I've put countless hours into developing. If you like what you see and want to help me in my endeavor with this variant, please consider supporting me through my Patreon! 🙏

But hey, I watched ur videos and i got intrested in infinite chess

A computer is one of the lower items on my list. The challenge is at any given point there are infinitely many legal moves to choose from. Themes, unlimited move distance, rated matches, etc. will likely come before!

Yes I'm planning on also adding the knightrider! (I have set aside a texture for it) That will be a fun challenge to introduce hippogonals other than diagonals and orthogonals.

I think the name infinity knight makes more sense than knightrider
