For those that like chess, mobius strips, and other twisted things:

Even if you don't try to solve the problem, just follow the path for a queen or rook - ignore anything in its path. Trippy~! :D

Plus it's only good for like 15 problems, because past that with a Mobius strip the "infinite long pieces" win, thus totally crushing the Knight and King balance.

I shall pass.

No, no you don't get it....
You invite that pretty girl at the bar to play (mobius) Strip chess. IF she says yes, you make up a few simple rules and say that Mobius was a drinking friend of yours who invented the game.

If she gets offended, you have a perfect way out :)     

I like this game.
