SpecialEffect's Checkers

In SpecialEffect’s Checkers, you use either our ‘Classic’ or ‘Precise’ controls to move diagonally up the board, keeping to the black squares. The objective of the game is to take all your opponent's pieces or play until they can’t make another move.

You take an opponent's piece by hopping over it if it. The game will show you where you can move each piece once it is selected.

Created to enable players to use their preferred controls on Android, the game is designed to be played with one of the following input methods: touch, a mouse cursor, a game controller or a keyboard.


CLASSIC AND PRECISE CONTROLS:

With our ‘Classic’ controls option, you select from 3 onscreen buttons. One to select a piece, another to choose where to move it to and a third to place it.

Using our ‘Precise’ controls option, you can directly select the piece on the board you want to move and then directly select an empty black square to move it to.

You can switch between the two control modes using the onscreen button in the top left of the screen.


SUPPORTED CONTROL INPUTS:

TOUCH - A single tap on the onscreen targets activates them. No swipes or holds are required.

MOUSE CURSOR - Using a single left click on the onscreen targets activates them. No drags or holds are required. The Auto-Click option in Android is also compatible with the game.

KEYBOARD - Arrow keys navigate and highlight the onscreen targets and the Enter key is used to select one, when highlighted.

GAME CONTROLLER - The Left Stick, Right Stick or D-pad is used to navigate the onscreen targets. Any of the face buttons or triggers on your compatible controller can be used to select an onscreen target, when highlighted.
