Play local two-player Checkers

How to play Checkers

• Red moves first. Click one of your pieces to see its highlighted moves, then click a highlighted square. Regular pieces move diagonally forward; crowned kings can also move backward.
• If any of your pieces can capture, you must make a jump. Jump over an opposing piece into an empty square to remove it. This version ends your turn after one jump, rather than chaining jumps.
• A piece becomes a king when it reaches the far row. The game announces a win when you capture all of the other player's pieces.
