Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock!

Looks good. It would make a good display as well as a game.

Boy, does that bring back memories. I suppose the game rules are available at some Trekkie web site?

Way back in my post college days I gave this a shot. These were the days before migraines and back then I had a chance of learning. Today this would be out of the question for me. I play a 3D version on my Kindle which looks like a 3d board on a 2D screen. Fun and I can walk always from it any time and come back what the head is feeling better. I use to play it all the time and I wasn't too bad at it. 3D chess is just off my charts. wc

This is awesome! I was wondering why no-one has ever tackled this one in paper before. It would make a great display piece, too. Big thumbs up!

My brother and I tried to make a 3D version involving 8 full-size chess boards. It was...interesting.
