★ ★ ★★ ★ About the game ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Checkers, also called Draughts one of the world’s oldest classic strategy board games. Checkers is played by two persons who oppose each other across a board either (8x8), (10x10) or (12x12).

In most games of checkers, there are two players. The players are at opposite ends of the board. One player has dark pieces, and one player has light pieces. They take turns moving their pieces. Players move their pieces diagonally from one square to another square. When a player jumps over their opponent's (the other player's) piece, you take that piece from the board. A win is scored when an opponent’s pieces are all captured or blocked so that they cannot move. When neither side can force a victory and the trend of play becomes repetitious, a draw game is declared.
