Checkers is a multiplayer (PvP) based game, the objective of which is to remove all of your opponent’s pieces from the board.
Gameplay[]
One player has the dark pieces; the other has the light pieces. Players alternate turns. A player may not move an opponent's piece. A move consists of moving a piece diagonally to an adjacent unoccupied square. If the adjacent square contains an opponent's piece, and the square immediately beyond it is vacant, the piece may be captured (and removed from the game) by jumping over it.
Men[]
Uncrowned pieces (men) move one step diagonally forward, and capture an opponent's piece by jumping over the piece on the first step. Multiple enemy pieces may be captured in a single turn provided this is done by successive jumps made by a single piece; the jumps do not need to be in the same line but may "zigzag" (change diagonal direction).
Kings[]
When a man reaches the crownhead or kings row (the farthest row forward), it becomes a king, and is marked by a Zios figure(if its your piece) or a Phantom figure (if its that of your opponent) over the original "man" piece and acquires additional powers including the ability to move backwards and (in variants in which they cannot already do so) capture backwards.
