    Yes, 3 and 4 players can play it.
    Though the rules for more than 2 players might slightly differ.
    Four-player chess (also known as Four-handed, Four-man, or Four-way chess) is a family of chess variants typically played with four people.
    A special board made of standard 8×8 squares with an additional 3 rows of 8 cells extending from each side is common.
    Four sets of differently coloured pieces are needed to play these variants.
    Four-player chess follows the same basic rules as regular chess.
    There are many different rule variations; most variants, however, share the same board and similar piece setup.
