What is Checkers Giveaway

Step onto the checkered field and outmaneuver your rival in this elegant duel of diagonal moves and leaps. It's a classic game of wits, now at your fingertips.

Click a piece and then click an empty diagonal square to move it. To capture, jump over an adjacent opponent piece onto an empty square beyond it; chain jumps in a single turn when possible.

Force your opponent into positions where they must move into your traps.
Set up multi-jump combinations by planning two or three moves ahead.
Center control is powerful—try to dominate the middle squares early.
When ahead in material, trade pieces to simplify the game and secure the win.
