Some candidates are Nightmare Chess, Shogi, Kamikaze Mortal Shogi, and
Gross Chess. Nightmare Chess has a lot of variety and is a lot of fun to
play, but it lacks the perfect information element and doesn't provide as
much opportunity for deep analysis. Shogi and Kamikaze Mortal Shogi have
much the same appeal. I might choose the latter over the former for being
my own game. Gross Chess is my largest variant, and it includes a greater
variety of pieces, including all the Chess pieces plus several popular
variant pieces. Consequently, there is more to pay attention to than in
most variants, and the opportunity for deep analysis is greater. As long as
I couldn't play other games, I'm inclined to choose Gross Chess.
