Draughts / Checkers

Overview

Draughts, also known as Checkers, is a strategy board games for two players which involve diagonal moves of uniform game pieces and mandatory captures by jumping over opponent pieces. The game is played on an 8×8 checkerboard, similar to chess, and victory comes when you have taken all of your opponents pieces or they are unable to make any further moves.

This computerised version, which sees you take on a computer opponent, was written by Chris Whittington who also coded 3D Voice Chess on the CPC.
