Tri-Chess; Third Party Interventionists

Chess traditionally is the ultimate two-party board game. In the present computing age it is possible to introduce a third opponent to the game, possibly as a mysterious alien power that interpolates its pieces into ongoing games to attack or defend whosoever it will. Players would need to determine if they should attack or defend the new pieces of uncertain purpose, or if they continue to attack each other or adopt cooperative strategies against the mysterious appearing extra-dimensional pawns, bishops, knights, king and queen. Obviously there are innumerable contexts and quantities in which the pieces might be made to appear by the operating system program.


If someone hasn't written the program for Tri-chess, if might be fun to create.
