Play Checkers online either against other players or against the computer! The game is also known as Draughts. It's played on a checkered 8x8 board or on a 10x10 board, one side controls the white and the other side the black pieces. Normal pieces can only move one step diagonally forward, but can also capture backwards. Once you reach the farthest row forward (kings row) then the piece becomes a king and can move any distance and also diagonally backwards. In tournaments the 10x10 board is preferred. Also the computer only plays on the 10x10 board.
