Players who enjoy Gridlock will likely also appreciate <a href='http://www.geocities.com/verdrahciretop/src.html'>Stanley Random Chess</a>, which can be played exclusively at SchemingMind.com. An annotated <a href='http://www.schemingmind.com/game.aspx?game_id=5786'>Exhibition Game</a> gives some idea of the game.
