About

A variant of the classic game Checkers (also called Draughts), where the grid is irregular.



On a regular grid, each cell has 8 neighbors, but in this case, they can have between 6 and 10. Therefore tiles can have 3 diagonals or 5 diagonals, which offers different moves depending on where a piece is.

This leads to more difficult games, as you can't build the same mental tricks to take over your opponent. This also makes your opponent harder to anticipate.

Procedurally generated


Grids are procedurally generated on each game, and there are hundreds of them. This makes each game unique.

Pre-selected boards


We've pre-selected some boards that are either similar enough to a regular one, so that can ease into this new variant, or very different, so that you can really enjoy those new strategies.

Starting a game


When you start a new game, you can choose one of the different modes:

- 1 player against a bot
- 2 players on the same device
- 2 players online

Online Multiplayer


To play multiplayer online, you can first see if any room created by other users is available.



If there are no room, you can create yours:



You can decide if your room will be public or private. If you create a public one, any player can join it. If you create a private one, you will see a window with a code you can share (via whatsapp, email, etc) with the person you want to join.
