Could you build this?
Partial Building standard 2D/3D board games is straightforward, but 4D/5D chess involves non-trivial multidimensional geometry projections, complex mathematical movement rules across four or five axes, and custom AI search algorithms.
What it would actually take: The frontend uses Three.js or WebGL to render hypercube projections or 3D sliced representations. The core challenge is the game engine: modeling 4-vector board coordinates (x,y,z,w), verifying legal moves across multi-axial trajectories (including 4D knight jumps and ray-casts), and developing a minimax/alpha-beta pruning evaluation heuristic tailored to hyper-dimensional spatial states.
