About Checkers Online

The appeal of board games is their lax nature. This isn't to say that they can't get very 😆 active, intense, or competitive, but they're mainly built for players to take as much time as they want. Checkers has 😆 always had a design made for easy absorption and interaction but can challenge your strategic thinking as much as any 😆 complex modern board game. There are always more options than may be readily apparent and the challenge is to try 😆 and find all of them before deciding to make your move. Only then can you hope to appreciate every part 😆 of the game.

How to Play

Checkers Online is a 3D competitive board game that you play with the mouse. The game 😆 begins with you choosing whether to play as the white or black pieces. No matter which you choose, the white 😆 side always moves first. The game uses standard Checkers rules and is arranged on an 8 by 8 board. Each 😆 piece can only move forward, but must either move one spot diagonally on the left or on the right. To 😆 move a piece, click on it and then choose the highlighted spot you want it to move.

In order to take 😆 the opponent's pieces, your piece needs to jump over them diagonally. This can only be done if the opposing piece 😆 is occupying a diagonal space in front of one of your pieces and the diagonal space behind them is open. 😆 As a result, consecutive jumps are also possible. If one of your pieces makes it to the last row on 😆 the other side of the board, that piece becomes a King and gains the ability to move diagonally backward or 😆 forward. To win the game, you must eliminate all of your opponent's pieces.
