Определение и Значение "circular chess"

What is "circular chess"?

Circular chess is a chess variant played on a circular board instead of the usual square grid. The board is typically divided into several rings, and the pieces are arranged in a way that allows them to move in any direction across the circular space. The movement rules for the pieces are generally the same as in traditional chess, but they must adapt to the circular shape. The goal is still to checkmate the opponent’s king, but the round board introduces new strategic elements, as players must consider not just the horizontal and vertical directions but also the curvature of the board. Circular chess offers a unique twist on traditional chess, providing a different challenge for players.
