Yes, there is a game called BattleChess. I don't know
who sells it (a gift to me).
It plays a good game, 7 levels + timed play. Supports 2D and 3D
modes. In the 3D mode, you get a very well done animation+sound
of pieces moveing and killed each other. I spent a couple
of hours when I first got the game simply setting up games
to watch how each piece killed other pieces.

It has the "enter this info" from the manual copy protection.
I tried AmigaDOS backup on the disk once, but the copy
did not work correctly.
I think they have simple messed with the block free bitmap, nothing
very complex.
