Comments on: Master Checkers: Competitive 2-Player Online Checkers Game https://plays.org/master-checkers/ Thu, 15 Jul 2021 14:09:59 +0000 hourly 1 By: Joey https://plays.org/master-checkers/#comment-1391 Thu, 15 Jul 2021 14:09:59 +0000 https://plays.org/?p=4818#comment-1391 This is a standard and faithful digital recreation of checkers. You have the option to play against a friend or the computer. Your goal is to capture all your enemy’s pieces. Pieces move forward in the diagonal one space at a time. They can only move several spaces when capturing another piece. Players can capture several pieces in one turn if the piece placement allows it.

Pieces become kings when they reach the end. Once crowned, the king piece can move and capture backwards. The game ends when no opponent piece is left or no player can make a legal move.

Piece placement is critical. For much of the early game, you can only move forward. To get ahead, you must engineer situations where you can capture several pieces at once. Kings become important mid-game because you can decimate enemies from behind.

The game follows the rules of English draughts, the most common form of checkers. There are no options to change the rules. The game also enforces mandatory moves, which are an added challenge. This may lead to enforced tactical blunders that will favor your opponent.
