Checkers

How to play

Pieces move one square forward on the diagonal. Against Pinky or Tommy you move first. With 2 players or online, Pinky’s side moves first.

Jumping

• Jump over a piece next to you onto the empty square behind it to capture it.
• If you can jump, you must. Pieces that can jump glow.
• After a jump, keep jumping if you can. Tap each landing square in turn.

Kings

Reach the far row and your piece is crowned. Kings move and jump forward and back.

Winning

Capture every piece or leave the other side with no move. If 40 moves each go by with no jump and no plain piece moving, it’s a draw.

Opponents and online

Play Pinky or Tommy at any difficulty from 1 to 100. At 1 they make lots of mistakes. At 100 they play close to perfect. Your setting is saved on this device.
