Four-player chess
Four-player chess (also known as Four-handed, Four-man, or Four-way chess) is a family of chess variants typically played with four people. A special board made of standard 8×8 squares with an additional 3 rows of 8 cells extending from each side is common. Four sets of differently colored pieces are needed to play these variants. Four-player chess follows the same basic rules as regular chess. There are many different rule variations; most variants, however, share the same board and similar piece setup.
==History==
The Cox-Forbes theory of the origin of chess asserts that a four-player version was the earliest form of the game. This theory has long since been debunked, but a description of a four-player chess game is found in an Indian text written c. 1500. The ''Tithitattva'' of Raghunandana describes such a version, which continued to be played into the 20th century.〔Partlett, David, ''The Oxford history of board games'', Oxford University Press, 1999, p.281.〕
The first documented example of a modern four-player chess system was written by Captain George Hope Verney in England in 1881.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2173/4-player-chess )〕
