A Chess game has eight similar conventional 64 square chess boards. The boards can be stacked vertically, one above the other or can be laid out flat, one adjacent to the other. One set of chessmen is initially arranged in normal fashion on one side of the topmost board while the other set of chessman is arranged in normal fashion on the lowermost board on the side thereof opposite to that one which the first set is arranged. A second row of pawns is provided for each set, one of which is arranged in the first row of the board directly below the topmost board and the other of which is arranged in the first row of the board directly above the lowermost board. The pieces are moved as in a regular game of chess except that moves can be made both vertically and horizontally with the proviso that a piece cannot be moved both fore or aft and up or down in the same move.
