1x1 chess: a wheel decides whether black or white get a king on that square

The 3x3 board unfortunately seems to have an unfair advantage in blacks favor as any legal move I can think of has an immediate counter that either ends with black promoting in 2 moves or white unable to move on their turn in 3 or less moves.

Fun fact : Someone made an "A.I." using matchboxes to play hexapawn

The 3x3 one is quite literally a gag from angry birds. How does that feel? That you made the same joke of board from slightly irritated avians.

How about 1D chess? 1×8 grid - K, N, R, _, _, *R, N, K*
The knight jumps 2 squares forward in this configuration, without jumping to the side.

Technically you can play a 2x2 with just pawns, but it would be pointless since the one beginning has two options to move the first, and the second only has one option so it would be a draw after two moves. But you can still play it. You can even play a 1x2 but that would be completely pointless.

1x1x3 board where there's only the king

Hexapawns is easily winnable for white if you know how to breakthrough pawns without kings

2x2 board, the goal is to promote the pawn,
To promote the pawn you have to make the pawn capture the opposition’s pawn without seeing the board and guessing the opponent’s position.

Have you heard of Shogi by any chance? One of its most popular alternate forms is played on a 5-5 board instead of the standard 9-9

The smallest chess board is a 1x2 board. There is a king of each colour on each square, and it ends in an instant draw because both kings are checkmated at the same time.

4×6 board or 4×7 board can be the smallest board you can still allow pawns to move 2 spaces on their first turn

Hexapawn is a guaranteed win for black

We need 2x2 with just two kings and white just wins immediately.
