The Playpager free Checkers app (Draughts app) is programmed in html5/Js. Kings have the ability to move and capture backwards as well as forwards.Ĭheckers history: Medieval Draughts players (Charles Knight) In this online game, the kings are marked with a crown. When one of the pieces reaches the other side of the board (the row farthest from the player), called the “kings’ row” or “crownhead”, the piece will become “king” and is marked by adding an additional piece on top of it. If one of the opponent’s pieces occupy that adjacent square, and the square immediately beyond it is vacant, the opponent’s piece may be captured and removed from the game by jumping over it. A player can move a piece diagonally to an adjacent unoccupied square. It is not legal to move an opponent’s piece. The two players alternate turns in the game. One of the players has the dark colour pieces and the other one has the light colour pieces. The game is played by two opponents who faces each other on opposite sides of the checkers gameboard.
