EXPERIENCE CHESS IN THREE DIMENSIONS
Tri Level Chess reimagines the classic game with a revolutionary vertical twist. Play on three stacked boards where pieces can move up and down between levels, creating entirely new tactical possibilities and strategic depth.
MASTER VERTICAL STRATEGY
- Move pieces across three parallel chess boards
- Rooks ascend and descend vertically like elevators
- Knights leap between levels with devastating effect
- Bishops cut diagonal paths through multiple planes
- Every piece gains new attacking angles and escape routes
FOUR EXCITING VARIANTS
Classic 3D Chess
Experience traditional chess rules across three dimensions. Perfect for learning the vertical strategy fundamentals.
Chess960 (Fischer Random)
Randomized starting positions on three levels create 960 unique opening configurations. No memorized openings—just pure strategy.
Atomic Chess
Captures trigger explosive chain reactions! When pieces capture, both attacker and captured piece (plus adjacent non-pawns) vanish in a blast. Kings can never capture. Aggressive tactics meet calculated risk.
Crazyhouse
Captured pieces join your hand and can be dropped back onto any level! Place opponent's pieces as your own for wild tactical combinations across all three boards.
