Care for a game of squiggly chess?

[shiitaketoast@beige.party]

@catsalad this is The Prisoner/The Seventh Seal mashup we didn’t know we needed

[linuxandyarn@hachyderm.io]

@catsalad @alice That looks familiar, like something that was actually produced in the 70s or 80s. I probably saw it in Games Magazine rather than a shop, though.

@catsalad @alice Alice in Wonderland-type shit.

[erik@mastodon.infrageeks.social]

@catsalad That is twisted. Now to use the bottomless pit version where the middle rows are impassible

[maxwyt34@social.vivaldi.net]

@catsalad This was clearly done by someone who was drunk.🥶

[colorblindcowboy@mastodon.art]

@catsalad The pieces should be fucked up too. That’s the only way one could play it.

As now, it just hurts my brain.

[renardboy@mastodon.social]

@catsalad I'm sad that the pieces themselves are not squiggly but despite that 9/10

@catsalad unfocus your eyes just right, it becomes 3d chess

[febog@hachyderm.io]

@catsalad I think I’ll just watch

@DukeDuke @catsalad @alice Me too. My mom was a charter subscriber and it was as much mine as hers.

@catsalad squiggly baduk when?

[ttimo@mastodon.social]

@catsalad omg it's not even symmetric for black and white either

[zeitzeuge_64@nrw.social]

@catsalad Cool!

[3daymonk@famichiki.jp]

@benroyce @catsalad You know…the occasional acid flashback…

[linuxandyarn@hachyderm.io]

@DukeDuke @catsalad @alice OMG, the Internet Archive has scans of 117 issues from the 70s and 80s!
