AIW chess

Postby snakes&ladders » Thu Jan 20, 2011 7:30 pm

I saw one in Oxford before. It wasn't in Alice's shop, but in another one.

I've seen few differnt versions online but it would be interesting to see what other people could come up with... maybe if I found a board with an "Alice" theme I might actually want to learn the game... DIS:-)

And then maybe you could learn Alice chess, which reportedly is a variant played on two boards.
