Four Fronts is a Chess variant for 2, 3, or four players, individually or in pairs. Each player has 12 pieces: 6 pawns, 1 each of the king, queen, knight, rook, and bishop, and a "prince" piece that is a hybrid of a bishop and a rook. The board is an ordinary 8x8 black and white chessboard, but extended along each of four sides for the player's starting fields. Along each 8-square side of the board is another six squares, then another four squares, then two, all of them centered. The overall shape of the board then can be seen as a square with jagged edges, and with its four corners highlighted in colors to match the players' pieces. The colored squares are the starting positions for each player. The game's rules of movement, capture, and winning conditions appear to be otherwise the same as in Chess.
