Hey I appreciate the shout-out @blinvir

Yes I made a functional chess board a while ago.
You like meta? Let's play CHESS!
Unfortunately it got exactly zero traction because mostly people just build or hunt or mine and the community wasn’t ready for roleplaying or meta. Thusly, I tore it down. Maybe there would be a better response now that folks are “bored” (no pun intended) … I don’t know. I hope whoever builds one will have better results.
