Chess sure is a 2D game but human mind isn't . When visualizing we usually do 3D as this is the thing our eyes ( even our virtual ones ) are used to ; also most non-computer-people will have a much easier time when looking at something similar to their real life experience . It is well known that the ability that seems to correlate best with chess playing talent is " ability to imagine objects in space " ( please be tolerant with my missing language abilities here) . Anyway : when looking at the responses I have to admit I didn't get through :-) I wish someone had actually simply taken a look at the nice BlitzIn 3D chessboard and I 'd buy every reasonably strong commercial chessprogram with such a nice chessboard/interface and still think it is a thing users urgently ask for though it is not so necessary for engine-engine matches . When it is about ideas and general impressions , discussions are useless anyway :-) regards . pete
