Description
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).

Great app. Can we have an option to select which game rules to use? I don't like american rules

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.

Excellent checkers game, especially the "Position Setup" feature, it's very good to practice from books. Can you please add another variant of the game such as Russian or Pool Rules? Thank you.

I downloaded it just to study without playing the robot. To beat the engine fair and square it's impossible for me, but I like the app.

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

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...
