About 4-Player Chess

4-Player Chess offers a chess board with up to 64 pieces and four different game modes:


2-Player standard mode - normal chess game
2-Player extended mode - extended board, each player has 32 pieces
4-Player team mode - each player has the standard 16 pieces, but is allied with another player against two opponents
4-Player mode, no teams - deathmatch, each player has the standard 16 pieces and fight against 3 other players


There is no computer opponent implemented - you'll always play against other human beings!


Not yet implemented:
• Castling (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castling)
• En passant (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/En_passant)
• Promotion (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Promotion_(chess))

Some notes:
• Even if your king is in check, you can still move every piece so that by the end of your move you're still in check (and probably checkmate after your opponents move)
• There is no draw, but you can leave/cancel a match at any time
• In 2-player extended mode, you have two kings, but you'll still lose if one of them is captured

Troubleshooting:
This game uses the Google Play Game Services for matchfinding and other game related communication - make sure to have the latest Google Play Services installed and allow synchronization to be notified about match updates

Is there going to be ways to connect blue tooth and insert engines in if you want? Edit: it only seems to allow facebook invites. I can't seem to get a game going because it won't allow me to even start a game without inviting facebook friends. So I need a way to invite casual like over a closed network or put an engine in place of humans on local mode. Is there ways to do it? Am I missing something?

Previous: Should add to play against computer. Nobody online to play against! No comments from developer!? NOW: I expect very little now after your response and other review replies. Google games is in infant stage and poor. You should buy a database of players, really not expensive. It is also sponsered by ads. So do your research or drown!

there is no A.I. option. You can only play against other players and nobody is ever online playing. I downloaded this app and can't even play it :( Add an A.I. option and I will give a better rating.

Really great game, lack of AI does bring it down one star, but there's enough people to play against online. Super cool & mind boggling.

I think this is a great 4 player chess system and only have a couple caviots. The promotions/castling need to be fixed and I would love to see your take on three player chess. Keep up the good work.

I think the King and Queen design should be switched. It is possible to play local game without waiting, cool.

Developer clearly cares about input from others and works to make the app excellent. With the addition of local play the only thing I can think of is addition of a buffer row in front of all sides so that it matches the actual 4 player chess boards I've played on, omitting that however, the app is definitely worth 5 stars.

There is already a 4 player chess game in which each player has they're own half side of a board. It looks red cross symbol. The vertical lines from each players perspective of theyre own side of the board will be straight but the line that should be horizon to a players perspective of they're own side of the board slant towards the middle an escalating but not exponential fashion. The lines that are supposed to run horizontally from player perspective will meet in the middle egually spaced

I have been looking for a 4-player chess game for a while now and here it is!... But there are some errors still. Need more players, all 4 queens must be on the left! The way I play is the pawns can move backwards, but only to make a kill diagonally on another pawn and pawns must kill to enter pockets. Once in the pockets new forward move is towards the power piece row. Another rule for team play, pawns on same team can move into same square, but other teammate must leave square before advancing.

5 starred due to incredible potential! Hey, not sure if you've messed with this in a while, but I love the concept, and had a few feature requests/suggestions (in order of my assumed programming difficulty): 3 added rows instead of the default 2. Teammates play across from each other rather than next to. Required move out of check. Full online play via server rather than friend only. Wish I knew how to program cuz I'd be glad to help! Love to hear your thoughts!

I love the game but not being able to castle or turn pawns into lost pieces among other rules takes away from the game. Also shouldn't allow you to put your self in check

Lacks local play but if added will be great! (Local play so that I can play alone vs myself or pass my phone around with friends.)
