About this game
Jump, capture and crown your way to victory in this classic board game. Captures are compulsory, multi-jumps chain together, and reaching the far row makes a king that moves both ways. Three AI strengths to grow with.
How to play
- You play red (bottom). Tap a piece to see its moves, then tap a highlighted square.
- Move diagonally forward onto an empty dark square.
- Jump over an adjacent opponent into the empty square beyond to capture it.
- If a capture is available, you must take it — and chain multi-jumps.
- Reach the top row to crown a king. Capture all the AI's pieces to win.
