About game

Board games that have stood the test of time remain the ultimate test of raw intellect and patience.

You control your pieces across the board while navigating the distinct rule sets of Russian draughts or English checkers. Selecting a piece is as simple as a quick tap, and the board highlights exactly where you can move to claim territory.
