A playable three-dimensional chess variant on an 8×8×8 board, with human-versus-CPU and shared-screen human-versus-human modes.

Why it surfaced

Every piece keeps its familiar moves while gaining movement through a third axis: kings can reach any of 26 neighboring cells, bishops can slide along triagonals, and knights have up to 24 destinations. The site also explains its rules and offers adjustable CPU strength, move history, takebacks, camera rotation, and coordinate labels in Greek levels.
