I have a chess set like that!!! It's three demensional chess and there
are rules. I just got a new (well, used) scanner today (YAY!) so maybe I
can dig out the rules sheet and scan it fer yas?

Oh, never mind, James just explained it. There are rules for the Trek
version too, but that's a totally different game. I got my set off ebay,
so might want to peruse ebay if you're looking ....

There is only one real good playable version that I know of called
hyperchess and that one is here:
http://www2.connectnet.com/users/hchess/

I have seen it and it is very nice. Hypershess is closer in appearance to
the Star Trek 3D chess but this one is the only one I ever heard of that
didn't have problems with weird rules or game resolution. It plays with
basically the same rules as regular chess.

It is a bit expensive but I think that there is enough info and pictures on
the web page to build and play a home-built one.
