Checkers in a minute

Checkers is a two-player capture game on a 64-square board. Move diagonally, jump over your opponent's pieces to capture them, and try to leave them with no legal move.

  1. Players take turns moving one piece diagonally.
  2. Capture by jumping over an adjacent enemy piece into the empty square beyond it.
  3. Reach the far row to crown a piece as a king.
  4. Win by capturing every opposing piece or blocking every legal move.

Our game plays American Checkers: captures are forced, a piece must finish a multi-jump, and kings can move backwards. The full rules cover every case.

What's at the table

The room has what two players need, so nobody has to set up a separate call or keep score on paper.

Invite in one tap

Share or copy the room link from the board. Your friend joins from their own browser, with no account.

See each other while you play

Start a video call from the table and each camera sits beside its player. Cameras are optional.

Chat and quick emoji

In a private room, send a message or a reaction without leaving the board.

A running score

The table counts wins between you two, and Restart Game sets up the next board.

Legal moves shown

The board highlights where a piece can go and enforces captures, so you can play without checking a rulebook.
