Erin's got you there Jo.
Now you have to play 5d chess with multiverse and time travel.
Which does exist and is on steam.
Or King of the bridge, where someone makes up chess rules.
I assumed it was just the fog of war preventing us from seeing the other pieces that were clearly on the board. Or maybe the chessboard was set to "high performance" instead of "maximum detail", so most of the pieces weren't displayed.
That's a tesseract, they represent 4th dimensional space, not 5th.

Funnily enough, 5D Chess is an actual game...and the lack of kings still doesn't make the most sense, although it is at least plausible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5D_Chess_with_Multiverse_Time_Travel
SO Jo, Penny Wise, Cthulu, Other Mother, ZoneTan and Mr. Mxyzptlk have somethings in common.
* They exists on another level/detention.
** They can see things that we can't.
*** That we never have we seen their true forms with out going completely mad.
That or Jo forgot the king and is making up excuses. Because he is in reality a human and forgets things like where he left his car keys, cell phone and where he parked.
