How to play

  • Pieces move diagonally forward on the dark squares.
  • Jump over an opponent piece to capture it. Captures are mandatory, and you must keep jumping if you can.
  • Reach the far row to crown a king – kings move and jump backwards too.
  • You win when your opponent has no pieces or no legal move left.

Computer levels & trophies

Play against the computer on Easy, Medium, Hard or Expert, or with a friend on one device. Win on every level to collect all four trophies.

Frequently asked questions

Are captures forced?
