Checkers

Classic draughts for two on the dark squares: capture all your opponent's pieces. 2 players

How to play Checkers

Capture all your opponent's pieces, or block them so they cannot move.

Pieces move one square diagonally forwards, only on the dark squares.
If an opponent's piece is right next to yours with an empty square behind it, jump over it to capture it. You may do that backwards too.
If you can capture, you must. If you can capture again after a jump, you must carry on.
When a piece reaches the far side, it becomes a king. That ends the move.
Kings fly: they move and capture diagonally over as many squares as they like.

You win when your opponent has no pieces left or cannot move. 50 moves in a row without a capture or a new king is a draw.

Keep your back row together for a while; it makes it hard for your opponent to get kings.
Watch out for lone pieces: a piece with an empty square behind it can be captured.
