Checkers online

The game in a nutshell

Checkers needs no introduction: diagonals, captures, kings. Here a game starts in 30 seconds — create a room, send a friend the link, and the board is already set. Or warm up against the AI while your friends are busy.

Three rule variants

• Russian draughts (default): 8×8 board, men capture backwards too, kings fly along whole diagonals.
• International draughts: 10×10 board, 20 pieces each, the majority rule applies — you must take the capture that removes the most pieces.
• English checkers: men capture forward only, kings move one square, dark moves first.
