Three player chess is born out of the traditional two player chess game. It does not seek to be a mathematically similar to the traditional two player game, rather, for the piece movements to be exactly the same. In fact the only different things are that three players can play and there are two basic rules to remember when moving around

Almost perfect
While I cannot fault the chess set itself it is a little disappointing that the guide for it was for standard 2 player chess and not a specific one for the 3 person version. Other than that it is perfect in every way.

Nice set, needs instructions.
I purchased this set out of curiosity and must admit, I am still curious as to the rules of this game. Of the set construction, I am much pleased. The pieces are all solid and feel weighted, the board, lies flat even after being rolled. but this is more than chess with 3 players, if you wish to play seriously, there are a lot of questions that remain unanswered such as what path the bishops take across the board an how if at all en passant works. I would have liked there to be a page explaining these and other variations to the standard set beyond the obvious “3rd army” now on the board.
