About the Game
The main feature is that moves and captures with checkers are made horizontally and vertically, and not diagonally, as in most popular types of checkers. Accordingly, the initial arrangement of checkers is different. On a 64-cell board, opponents place their 16 checkers on all cells of the second and third horizontals. You can play the game with artificial intelligence, with another person on one device, or with an opponent online in multiplayer mode. You can also watch other players play, act as a spectator, or suggest your own version of the next move to the player by making it on the board.
How to Play
Begin the game by placing your 16 checkers on the initial rows of the 64-cell board. Slide your checkers vertically to next empty squares. Take an opponent's checker by skipping over it to an empty square immediately beyond. Keep in mind that captures are compulsory when possible. Upgrade your checker to a enhanced piece when it reaches the far side of the board, allowing it to move and capture in any direction. Achieve victory by capturing all your opponent's checkers or by trapping them so they cannot move. Choose to play against the artificial intelligence, a same-device opponent, or face someone online in multiplayer mode.
