Hexagonal chess refers to chess variants played on a board made of hexagonal cells rather than the standard 8x8 square grid, the best-known being Wladyslaw Glinski's version created in 1949, which uses a 91-cell hexagonal board and modified piece movements. These variants change the geometry of lines of attack, particularly for bishops and rooks, and introduce new tactical possibilities not found in standard chess. They remain a niche pursuit for chess players seeking novel strategic challenges.
