Checkers, also known as draughts, is an exciting and strategic board game played between two players. Here’s a thrilling overview of the rules!

The main goal is to capture all of your opponent's pieces or block them so they cannot make a move.

• The game is played on an 8x8 board.
• Each player starts with 12 pieces, usually black and white.
• Players set up their pieces on the three rows closest to them, using only the dark squares.

1. Players take turns moving one piece at a time.
2. Pieces move diagonally forward to an adjacent empty square.
3. If an opponent's piece is adjacent and the square beyond it is empty, you can jump over the opponent's piece, capturing it!
4. Captured pieces are removed from the board.
5. If you reach the last row on the opponent's side, your piece is "kinged" and gets a crown! Kings can move both forward and backward.

The game ends when one player captures all of the opponent's pieces or blocks them from making any legal moves. The player with remaining pieces is the winner!

So gather your friends, set up the board, and let the games begin! Enjoy the thrill of strategy and competition in this classic game of checkers!
