About Turkish draughts
The main feature is that moves and captures with checkers are made horizontally and vertically, and not diagonally, as in most popular types of checkers. Accordingly, the initial arrangement of checkers is different. On a 64-cell board, opponents place their 16 checkers on all cells of the second and third horizontals. You can play the game with artificial intelligence, with another person on one device, or with an opponent online in multiplayer mode. You can also watch other players play, act as a spectator, or suggest your own version of the next move to the player by making it on the board.
How to Play
Launch the game by arranging your 16 checkers on the starting rows of the 64-cell board. Shift your checkers vertically to next empty squares. Capture an opponent's checker by leaping over it to an empty square immediately beyond. Remember that captures are compulsory when possible. Advance your checker to a enhanced piece when it reaches the enemy's side of the board, allowing it to move and capture freely. Succeed by taking each of your opponent's checkers or by immobilizing them so they cannot move. Select to play against the computer, a local opponent, or challenge someone online in multiplayer mode.
