- Moves are allowed only on the black squares. So checkers pieces always move diagonally. Single checkers pieces are always limited to move forward toward opponent to an adjoining vacant square.
- If an opponent’s piece is in the adjoining square, with a vacant square in the other side, it must be captured and removed by jumping over it to the vacant square.
- If this square present same situation as above, successively jumping forward in a straight or zigzag direction must be completed in a same turn.
- When there is more than one way to jump in a turn, the player must choose the way which captures and removes the most quantity pieces to jump.
- When a piece moves into the square of the king row, the opponent’s closest row, it must be crowned by opponent, adding a same color piece on it and connect them together with a stick, the piece now called a King.
- The king piece has the privilege of moving and jumping forwards and backwards.
- A win is scored when an opponent’s pieces are all captured or blocked so that they cant move.
- When neither of the player can force a victory, and the trend of each turn becomes repetitious, a drawn game is declared.
