How to Play
Simple to learn, brutal to master. Here's the gist:
- Movement: Move your pieces diagonally forward one square.
- Capturing: Jump over opponent pieces diagonally to capture them. Multiple jumps are mandatory!
- Kings: Reach the opposite side of the board, and BAM! You're a King, capable of moving both forwards and backwards. OP much?
- Winning: Eliminate all your opponent's pieces or block them so they can't move. GG EZ? Not always...
Pro Tips
- Control the Center: Dominating the middle of the board gives you maximum movement options and tactical advantage.
- Sacrifice Wisely: Sometimes, a calculated sacrifice is the key to a game-winning combo. Think three steps ahead, like a pro.
- Don't Block Yourself: Trapped pieces are useless pieces. Plan your moves carefully to avoid getting cornered.
- Practice Makes Perfect: Don't get discouraged by early losses. Every game is a learning opportunity. Keep grinding, and you'll be a draughts champion in no time!
