How to Play

The core gameplay follows classic Russian checkers rules: all captures are mandatory and must be completed. Players move pieces diagonally, jumping over opponent pieces to capture them. If a piece can continue capturing after a jump, it must do so in a chain. Pieces reaching the opponent's back rank become Kings, which can move any number of squares diagonally. The goal is to capture or block all enemy pieces. AI opponents offer adjustable difficulty, and hints and undo are available.

Controls

Click a piece to select it, then click a target square to move or capture. Fullscreen mode is supported.
