Idea: 4-chess-diagrams clock (24h digital). One move (w+b) per minute. Initial position counts as zero.
Possible: 4 games ending in mate in 2/3/5/9 moves. Drawback: unequal diagrams at 22.22h. Advantage: Rollback at 00.00h from 4 mates to 4 starting pos.
Or: 4 times move 1-9 of a variation (e.g. Poisoned Pawn Sicilian). Drawback: 23.59h will not give the impression of finishing. Adv.: equal digits, equal positions.
Ideally you see 2 pieces sliding in place every move/minute.
