What if chess will be played like Quidditch sitting on a broomstick😀.

What if, what is isn't true?
What are you going to do?
What if, what is isn't you?

hussein: a game played on a field with hurdles, trapezes, and ditches, kind of like soccer but more varied, in Jack Vance's scifi novel "Alastor 2266" (not sure on the number or spellings).
vlet: a game similar to chess, played on a set of boards, with animated hologrammatic pieces and fields, including armies, navies, deities, a spirit plane (a transparent board), and cards and varied dice (similar to tarot and D&D), all folding up into a travel case, in Samuel R. Delany's scifi novel "Triton".
