Here you will find a complete variety of Checkers games to play against the PC or with other people online. Feel free to surf in any game you want to play.
Checkers is played on the dark squares only. A piece may move one square at a time, diagonally. If one of your pieces is next to one of your opponent’s pieces and the square beyond it is free, you are required to jump over the opponent’s piece. The opponent’s piece is then removed from the board. It is possible to jump many times in a row with the same piece, capturing several of your opponent’s pieces.
In the beginning, pieces can only move and jump forward. However, if a piece reaches the far end of the board then it becomes a king. A king is allowed to move and jump diagonally backwards and forwards. Kings can be captured like any other piece.
You win by capturing all of your opponent’s pieces, or by blocking them so that they cannot move. A Draw occurs when neither of the players can force a win.
