I played a demo of this game at Origins in Columbus, OH this past weekend
and it's incredible! There have been many variants to standard chess in
recent years, but this one creates an entirely new GAME, with HUGE
strategic depth, that could definitely become a staple game if it's
promoted correctly. 

With 3 ways to win, it's definitely going to challenge chess enthusiasts
but is still fun for the casual player. Once you start playing this game,
it's possible that you might not want to ever play standard chess again.


I'm going to be analyzing this game until it comes out on August 14.
