About Master Checkers Multiplayer

Master Checkers is a clean version of the classic board game with three ways to play: online multiplayer, against the computer, or passing one device with a friend.

Checkers looks simple and isn't. Because captures are usually compulsory, a good player wins by offering a piece that forces a capture chain ending badly for the opponent — the whole game is built on that idea.

How to play Master Checkers Multiplayer

Move
Click a piece, then the square to move it to
  1. Move pieces diagonally forward one square.
  2. Jump an opponent's piece to capture it; captures usually chain.
  3. Reach the far row to be crowned king and gain backward movement.
  4. Capture all your opponent's pieces or block their moves to win.

Master Checkers Multiplayer tips

  • Keep your back row intact early; it stops opponents crowning.
  • Offer a piece to force a capture that sets up a bigger one for you.
  • Advance pieces in connected groups, not alone.
  • Kings are worth far more than men — race for the crown once the board opens.

Master Checkers Multiplayer — questions

Are captures compulsory?

In most rule sets yes, and that's what creates the game's central tactic: sacrificing a piece to force a capture chain that ends in your favour.

What can a king do?

Move and capture backwards as well as forwards, which makes it dramatically more powerful than an ordinary piece.

Can you play a friend on the same device?

Yes — that's one of the three modes, alongside online multiplayer and playing the computer.
