Patrik Pajer A few days ago, in our column, we recommended the game Pawnbarbarian, which combined the traditional rules of chess with the rules of the roguelite game genre. Even if it was a rather unconventional setting of a centuries-old game in a new context, it is certainly not the strangest. Our game today does not fundamentally change the rules of the game itself in any way, it just takes the fight to capture the enemy king to other dimensions by allowing you to move your pieces across timelines.

Some of you are probably familiar with the 5D chess from the Star Trek series. Adding another axis to a two-dimensional game thus enriches Chess with another dimension of complexity. However, developer Conor Petersen adds two new dimensions that we're not quite used to. In 5D Chess, you thus get the opportunity to send your pieces across time to, for example, surprise your opponent in a move you already played a few minutes ago. But since XNUMXD Chess does not shy away from even greater complications, such a design will not have consequences in the game that represents your present, but will create an entirely new timeline.

So if you think that winning a normal game of chess is an otherworldly task, 5D Chess might not be the game for you. All those games with time are regulated by the very rules of movement of the individual figures. In addition, each of them has its own unique characteristics, describing how such an expedition will affect it. But for most of us it's still a very interesting gaming experiment where we may not win but will reward you from time to time
