Comments on Checkers for Android for Android

★★★★★ A Google user · Dec 7, 2018
This is a very fine app that appeals to the true checker fan. If you want a toy app that doesn't follow the rules and is a weak player then look elsewhere. In fact this app, while strong relative to an average player, is well below master strength, so whiners should quit complaining and instead develop a little playing skill. See my full review at checker maven dot com.
★★★★★ Hayden Coulter-Phillips · Sep 14, 2026
I finally beat the CPU, fair play that was fun, but so hard
★★★★★ Hayden Doan · Jul 24, 2019
Thank you for this excellent Checkers app. I really appreciate the Ads free play. One of the best features is the option to view from the black/white perspectives. Can you please add feature to highlight the last move? As mentioned in other reviews, the AI engine plays too strong. I'll just have to keep on trying to improve using the Random first moves. Thanks!

Checkers game is playing faulty purposely, and I do not know why because it has been playing hlgh Checkers all along, but now it doesn't even doing the jumps, and it is boring !! Hugs
★☆☆☆☆ A Google user · Jun 15, 2018
Pointless. It's high skilled and annoying. If it's not fun why play it.
★☆☆☆☆ Google Account · Feb 17, 2020
The autoplay is doing illegal moves on the board, twice the game jumped spaces from across the board when it wasn't actually possible to make the moves...

Description by Aart Bik Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Checkers for Android (draughts) consists of an 8x8 checkers engine and a GUI. The application accepts moves through the touch screen or trackball. An optional "move coach" shows all valid user moves and highlights each last played move. Full game navigation enables users to correct mistakes or analyze games. Games import and export as FEN/PDN to and from the clipboard or via sharing, or are set up through a position editor. The engine plays at various levels (including random and free-play). By popular request, an option was added to select between mandatory captures (the official rule) or optional captures (a common home rule, but without "huffing", where the piece that should have performed the capture is forfeited; instead the game simply continues). The user can play either side and, independently, view the board from the perspective of white or black.

The application connects to an external electronic checkers board (Certabo).
