One major difference between this game and the more usual 4D variant is that it is played on the surface of a tesseract rather than through four dimensions. So, it is a 4D variant in the same sense that Spherical Chess is a 3D variant. Like Spherical Chess, the pieces have 2D movement, but the board has properties of a higher dimensional playing area.
