    RULES:
    The rules are the same as regular chess except for these changes. The object of the game is to capture your opponent’s king, there is no check or checkmate. Layout the board longways between the two players. Each space on the board is considered a square, regardless of its perceived shape. On your 2nd row setup 9 pawns like so. On your first-row setup: rook, knight, bishop, king, bishop, knight, rook. On your bottom-most bonus square, place your queen.
    Squares along the edge of the board are not diagonally connected to each other. Squares inside the board are only diagonally connected to the corners of adjacent squares that are not orthogonally adjacent to it. In certain locations, this results in preventing further diagonal movement in a specific direction, while in other cases, it allows for multiple diagonal movement options.
    Movement across multiple squares must always be in a straight continuous line, though the perception of that line may curve. A straight line is considered moving across a square to the opposite line, or corner, from where you entered. Moves strung together this way are considered straight, though they may curve across the board.
    Colored squares are grouped into sets of 9, with each set having a matching-colored set on the other side of the board, making a pair. Each colored set is conjoined with its pair so that the 2 sets are considered a single set of 9 squares. Any piece to occupy a colored square actually occupies both colored squares in the same set simultaneously. Use the board markers to identify the correct orientation of the sets and add an extra identical piece marker to the square of the other set to indicate this.
    A piece beginning its turn on a colored square, can move from either of its conjoined locations on the board. In a single move, a piece may travel through colored squares like it traditionally would, or, it may travel through a colored square’s conjoined location and continue in the same relative direction it was traveling. You may not perform an infinite move nor return to the space that you started on. When a piece on a colored square is captured, remove both copies of it from the board.
    Pawns always move orthogonally forward towards their opponent’s side of the board. If a diagonal space is directly in front of it, then it may travel to either of the 2 orthogonally forward spaces or capture forward, right, or left. En passant is allowed like normal. Pawns promote like normal when reaching any of their opponent’s higher rank starting positions.
    Castling is allowed like normal by moving the king 2 spaces towards the rook, then the rook to the other side. You may castle even if your king is threatened, and you may castle through a threatened space. Kings may move to a threatened space. The first player to capture their opponent’s king, wins.

      3D Chess already exists, it's called Strato Chess. But in 3D world, you can't travel through time (Cause Time is the 4th dimension) so if you can time travel, it's 4D. All though I (may) get what you mean. Maybe you mean a 4D Chess with 3D board
      Note: Time Travelling in 4D and 5D are different. 4D is just warping into the past or present without changing anything else (Thus, changing the past or future is not possible here) or just staying in different parts of the same timeline at once. While 5D time travelling creates an entirely different timeline for doing so (in which you can change it however you'd like)

      I think you'd have to refer to the colours, but since they share an orientation, it's not too bad. You notate the coloured squares as A1-C3 each, but with a leading letter for each colour: (Y)ellow, (O)range, (R)ed, (P)urple, (G)reen, (C)yan, and (M)iddle for the no-mans-land in the center. You also (B)lack and (W)hite for each side's starting area, though rank 1 only has the bonus square in the middle, and ranks 2, 3, and 4 (counting out from the board edge) have different numbers of spaces, just counting across each layer. This only leaves the white spaces on the edge of the board unmarked, but you could make them (E)dge A1-B2.
      It took me way too long shuffling colour and zone names around to make sure they would all be one-letter unique.

    This would look more readable if the board was actually a 3-D shape made of (or at least backed with) ferromagnetic material and the pieces made magnetic, so that you can actually see the intended relations between the sub-boards.

    This reminds me of time cube chess, where there are 6 boards, one for the future, one for the past, and 4 alternate presents. You go white first on the first present board, then black on the second, then white again on the third, then black again. Then you update the future board based on the "agreement" of pieces on the present boards, moving them there relative to where they started. You can give up your turn on any present board to move a piece in either the future or the past, pieces captured in the past being removed from all boards. The goal is to checkmate your opponent's king in the future. What really reminded me of this though was that two present boards have to agree with each other about where a piece is for that to propagate to the future, and a piece can be in two places at once in the future as a result.

    According to someone, you said we could make our own variants, so here is mine. Video idea: Fan made mod (by me), rock papers scissors chess.(Please read full comment.) The rules are the same as regular chess, except for these changes. A new piece is in the game, called the citizen.The citizen moves like a rook,but only 1 square at a time, so one square horizontally and vertically, not diagonally. Although, it can capture like a bishop one square, so 1 square diagonally in all directions. It is not placed anywhere at the start of the board and is merely a promotion piece, which we will talk about later. To sum up how it moves, it is like a king, but not as important and cannot capture horizontally or vertically, only diagonally. Now, onto the real rules of the game. There is no check or checkmate, every time someone captures a piece, you play rock papers scissors (3 rounds) to see if it is captured or not. If the defending player wins, they keep their piece and it is their turn, if the attacking player wins, they capture the piece like normal. Pawns are not allowed their double step move, therefore, en passant isn't allowed. If a pawn reaches the end of the board, another rock papers scissors match begins. The promoting player must say which piece he would like to promote to beforehand. This time, rock papers scissors is only one round because its a promotion match. If the promoting player wins, he may pick his promotion piece. If the defending player wins, the promoting player's pre picked piece is now demoted one level down. The level goes like this. Citizen, Knight, Bishop, Rook, Queen. You may not pick the citizen to promote to, it is only for if the pre-picked piece was a knight and the promoting player loses. One example is if the promoting player loses and picked a queen beforehand, it is now a rook. If he had picked knight, the pawn is now a citizen. Some other variant ideas of this one are no citizen, instead if he had picked knight and loses, he now picks an enemy piece to make his own. If you do use this idea, please give me credit and give me a shoutout.

    quite confusing

    For people who think 5d chess with multiverse time travel is too simple.

    Out of all the variants, this one gave me a legit headache. Anybody that could play this must be a savant.

      you don't want to know what 5D chess with multiversal time travel is, don't you?

      I actually legit think this is more complicated than 5DC. The way the information in parsed and presented in multiple ways, the clean graphic design...like 5DC is doing everything it can to try to show you how it's working. This board is kind of actively doing the opposite with it's multipositioning and weird angles, I mean its literally called illusion, its trying to be confusing.

      @A Random Gamer That would only be 6 dimensions, because the "5D chess" is actually only 4D.

      @A Random Gamer No it doesn't, for the exact same reason that 2d is still 2d chess, even though picking up pieces technically gives them a third dimension for their movement: it's not relevant to the game. If I asked you to notate a knight's move, you would use four coordinates because there are only four dimensions.
      And that's just the most obvious way you can tell, that's not even any of the actual logic behind it; though, trust me, that list doesn't end.

    It is Riemannian 2D-ish chess ! 😖
