Black hole
chess
is any one of several
chess variants
in which there are one or more 'black holes' on the
board
. In some
variant
s, any piece that lands in a black hole is removed from the board, where it may or may not be
recovered
depending on the game. In other types of black hole chess, no piece may enter or travel across a black hole (although
knight
s may still jump over it).
One type of black hole chess that is available
online
was
invented
by Karl Scherer in May 2000. There are four black holes at e4, e5, d4, and d5, and any piece that lands in one may be
recovered
and placed anywhere on the board in exchange for a turn. This game is available for
download
from
zillionsofgames.com
. The other widely known
internet
variation was invented by David Short for the ChessVariants.com "Hundred Squares Chess" contest, in which it did not place. It includes one black hole in the center of a 9x11 board, and an additional square behind each
king
to fulfill the 100
square
requirement.
