3 Man Chess

Description

Get ready for a thrilling twist on the classic game of Chess with 3 Man Chess, designed by Clif King and published in 2004. This abstract strategy game is played with three players, each with their own team of conventional chess pieces, on a unique circular board. The game board features six concentric ranks and an open central void that pieces can pass through but not stop on, adding a new layer of complexity to the game. As you navigate the board, you'll need to think strategically about how to move your pieces, using the teardrop shaped curves to guide your diagonal moves and avoiding the moats and creeks that separate the teams at the start of the game. As the game progresses, the strategy becomes intensely complex and fascinating, with unexpected moves leading to cascading massacres and defense becoming crucial to survival. With two opponents to contend with, you'll need to stay on your toes to avoid being checkmated, but you also have the opportunity to checkmate both of them at the same time. The game takes about 60 minutes to play, and while the rules are of normal complexity, the gameplay is engaging and challenging, making it a great option for fans of abstract strategy games. With its unique gameplay and social interaction, 3 Man Chess is a great way to spend an hour with friends or family, and its normal complexity makes it accessible to anyone familiar with board games.
