About game
Classic Russian checkers (draughts) — clean, comfortable and true to the rules. Play against the computer on one of five levels, or with a friend on the same screen.
Five difficulty levels — everyone will find a fitting opponent. Beginner moves at random: a calm start and a good choice for kids. Amateur already plans a little, Player holds a steady middle level, Master plays strong and attentive, and Grandmaster calculates deeply and rarely forgives mistakes.
Study games — six classic matches to review at your own pace, move by move, with rewind, pause and three playback speeds. A handy way to learn openings and tactics.
Three visual themes: Classic, Dark and Light.
During a match you have move hints (can be turned off), the series score, a captured-pieces counter, a timer, undo, a draw offer and Continue — return to an unfinished game. The game keeps your statistics.
Two languages: Russian and English. Works on desktop and mobile, no sign-up or installation.
How to play
The goal is to capture or block all of your opponent's pieces. Moves: a man moves one square diagonally forward. Capturing is mandatory. Important: a man may capture in any direction — both forward and backward. Jump over an opponent's piece onto the empty square behind it; several captures can be chained in a single turn. King: a man that reaches the far row becomes a king, even mid-capture. A king moves and captures diagonally any distance, in any direction. Choice of capture is free: if several captures exist, take any of them — there is no "capture the most" rule. Within one chain you cannot jump the same piece twice: captured pieces stay on the board as obstacles and are removed only after the turn ends. A draw is recorded automatically — on threefold repetition of a position, or when there are no captures and no forward progress for a long time. Study games: open the section from the main menu, pick a game and step through the moves with the controls. Three playback speeds.Game info
