The new multiplayer version of Trichess is online for more than two weeks, and dozens of games have already been played. We have faced some technical difficulties, some have been solved quickly, other are still being taken care of.

Keep on inviting your friends to play, and think of using the option “link to this table” in the Game menu, to allow them to join easily your game.

Have fun!

As a first step towards a multiplayer version of Trichess, the hotseat version has been redevelopped using Google Web Toolkit, a more suitable technology than Java applets.

The game is now faster, more fluid, loads quicker, and does not require authorization to execute Java.

Work in progress

Welcome to the Trichess website !

Trichess is a three person Chess game using a 96 squares board. The main characteristic of the game is the rule of non-aggression that can provide a partial immunity. Inspired by the notion of Chess sacrifices and laws of territorial sovereignty for nations, the rule of Trichess transforms a numerical weakness in a strategic strength. On a board game where three players compete, this rule restores fairness and the opportunity to win using strategies based on logic and not on diplomacy.
When playing Trichess, you do not play two against one, but one against two.

In 2011, keenSoftware took the initiative to develop an online game in hotseat mode for Trichess. This way you can try the new perspectives opened by this game.
