Your goal
Capture or immobilise all opposing pieces under English draughts rules.
Step by step
- Select a piece, then its legal diagonal destination.
- A capture must be taken when available.
- Continue a jump chain with the same piece; promotion ends that capture turn.
- Kings move and capture diagonally both ways.
Controls
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback.
A useful example
An adjacent enemy with an empty square beyond it requires a jump rather than a quiet move.
Watch out for this
These are English short-king rules, not international flying kings.
