Description
Checkers is an online adaptation of the original board game, initially called draughts in English. Two players control 12 pieces each on a checkered board. To win, a player must capture all of the enemy pieces. During their turn the players can move one of their own pieces diagonally by one square towards the opponent. They can capture enemy pieces and remove them from the board by jumping over them when adjacent. If someone manages to move a piece to the opposite edge of the board, that piece becomes a king, which can then jump both forward and backward (diagonally). A player wins the game when the opponent has no pieces left on the board or resigns.
