Checkers is a multi user game for two people. One player plays with white pieces and the other with black. The player with the white pieces makes the first move. Pieces move diagonally and pieces of the opponent are captured by jumping over them. The playable surface consists only of the dark squares.

Capturing a piece is mandatory and such a move cannot be passed over. The captured piece is removed from the board and goes into the stackbelow. The player who has no pieces left or cannot move anymore loses the game.

The pieces can move one step diagonally forwards and capture other pieces by making two steps in the same direction, jumping over the opponent's piece on the intermediate square.
