Same chess.
New dimensions.
Every piece you know moves exactly as it does in classical chess with the addition of a hexagonal board.
Hexagonal board · 96 squares
A three-way symmetric hexagonal board. The central rosette offers unique strategic opportunities.
Standard piece movement
Knights jump, bishops glide, rooks sweep, queens dominate. Pawns promote at the far rank. Castling included.
Alliances & diplomacy
No formal alliance rules - tactical cooperation is key. Letting one player gain a material advantage usually spells doom for the other two.
Last king standing wins
When a player is checkmated their pieces are removed from the board. The last king in play wins the game.
Sharpen up against
the computer.
Three-player tactics take practice. Train against bots tuned from gentle to ruthless - solo offline, or as a stand-in when your lobby is a seat short.
