Checkers Master follows standard American / British checkers rules on an 8×8 board. Regular pieces move diagonally forward, capture by jumping over opponent pieces, and become Kings when reaching the far row. Kings can move and capture in both forward and backward diagonal directions. The player who captures all opponent pieces or leaves them with no valid moves wins.
