Knightmare Chess I

Chess will never be the same! Knightmare Chess is chess played with cards -- and what cards! Each card breaks the rules
in a wild and unpredictable way, giving the game more twists and turns than a roller coaster. Some Knightmare Chess cards affect a single move, while some change the entire game! Each card is assigned a point value, so you can build custom decks based on an agreed point total, or handicap the match so the better player has fewer powerful cards. The possibilities are endless -- and endless fun!

More mind-warping weirdness for the chessboard! This is an 80-card set with new cards, more chaos, and more fun.
The set can stand alone, or it can be added to the original Knightmare Chess cards for an even wilder game!

Proteus

From the folks who brought you Knightmare Chess comes Proteus - a dice game that plays a little like chess and a lot like nothing you've ever seen before! Played on a standard chess board, each side gets 8 dice, with a different piece on each face. You start with 8 pawns, but each turn you get to change one of your dice to a more powerful piece. But as your pieces get more powerful, they become worth more points to your opponent! The game is easy to learn, but mastering the intricate strategies will prove much harder . . .

Ministers Chess

Ministers Chess is symmetric chess, employing a 19.5” x 19.5” folding board with Ministers 9 x 9 = 81 squares pattern on one side and Conventional chess pattern on the other; 36 tournament size (3 ¾” king, 2" pawn) impact plastic chess pieces. This is the Third Edition. It contains two added GIFTS: a 19.5” x 19.5” vinyl roll-up board and a 12"x7" cloth Chess bag. The king is flanked by two queens, each called "minister", the historic name of the queen of chess, thus establishing the hitherto absent symmetry about the king; in a larger more powerful game. Whether against man or machine, no theory of openings is there to favor one player over the other. Of a highly educational value, Ministers teaches that it is never too late to change history.
