### 1/5 — Poor

*2011-04-04, version 1.2*

Game crashes whenever pc is losing. Also game does not allow music to be play in background.

### 1/5 — Bummer

*2011-02-19*

The game won't let me make moves that are open on the board, so it seems rigged. And it is impossible to win against the computer. No fun.

### 1/5 — I got it and downloaded it on my iPad

*2010-12-14*

And it wouldn't show up I typed in the name

### 1/5 — Can’t purchase game pack 3 (for iPad)

*2025-05-01, version 2.2*

I’m purchasing this through iPad, why can’t I buy this?

### 1/5 — Pretty poor

*2014-03-16, version 1.5*

It won't let me take legitimate moves/captures, when it is dammed obvious the opportunity is available to do so. Very frustrating. I feel as though this game is rigged in favour of the computer.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2013-01-20, version 1.5*

The worst game I have ever played

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2012-12-16, version 1.5*

Most useless game i have ever downloaded. Don't waste your time on this game always freezing and crashing.

### 1/5 — Bloody cheating $&!! !

*2012-11-11*

This game is totally rigged! You are permitted to make any move that will benefit yourself. This game is being deleted. I was hoping for so much more.

### 1/5 — Постоянно вылетает

*2012-03-03*

Не стабильно работает

### 1/5 — Awful!

*2011-11-26, version 1.4*

Terrible app, if I could I wouldnt have given it any stars. Completely pointless as when you are winning computer moves same piece back and forth. Poor.

### 1/5 — Good suite of games except

*2011-09-04*

I enjoy playing draughts, however I've noticed that the malaysian checkers 12x12 crashes when you try to view the rules and and the protocol isn't followed as described. Ex. Men cannot eat backwards. And the computer doesn't eat even when it has to. I tried this on an iPad 1. Since this app doesn't work as described, please fix it and send out an update. This pack was for iPad only and doesn't even work correctly. Hope to see one soon, great app otherwise. Would get 5 stars when corrected.

### 1/5 — Classic game ruined!!!!!

*2011-08-31, version 1.3*

Game always set to win, won't let you make any moves against it. Computer King pieces move back and forth throughout the game while you struggle to keep your pieces.

### 1/5 — lack of moves

*2011-04-05*

It is very frustrating to play this game when the program only allows you to make one out of several open moves - particularly because that move always gets you jumped! The program doesn't allow the player to stratagize at all.

### 5/5 — Great

*2010-12-03*

Great games, great graphics, great gameplay ... love the GameCenter integration.

One of the best checker games for the iphone - I like especially that it has so many different variations of checkers available. Everyone should be able to find their favorite version of checkers.

### 5/5 — Loved this game!

*2010-11-23*

Tyvm! Its the best checkers game for ipad! And with gamecenter integration! And option to purchase table options!!! Im braziian and Im very glad to find the option to purchase brazilian checkers variant ingame, tyvm!

### 4/5 — Good app

*2013-03-02, version 1.5*

Nice to have different variations to play

### 4/5 — Good app

*2010-11-23, version 0*

The only flaw is the game script is hard read (just a little).  A selection of piece styles would be nice.

### 3/5 — Pretty good games, a few bugs, like hard setting Philipene draughts doesn't work but lots of fun

*2013-04-11*

Game says that I can purchase extra game pacs to remove adds. Package number 3 offers Canadian checkers, on a 12 x 12 square board, which I have been trying unsuccessfully to buy. The App Store does not list anything on a 12 x 12 board.  In fact, I can't buy anything from this site and the email address for the developer is bogus.

### 3/5 — Average game

*2012-08-11*

Overall fun game, seems rigged at times and cheats for the computer (forces your king to take a double jump but when you set their king up for a double jump and capture it only jumps one time to evade capture)

### 3/5 — Ok

*2011-02-11, version 1.1*

It is quite a good game but It is not my favourite game. I think it could be improved by adding different levels of difficulty to make it better. It is ok

### 3/5 — Bugs

*2010-12-27, version 1.1*

There is one annoying bug. Game seems to crush whenever I am a move from beating the computer on the hard difficulty level. Please fix otherwise 4/5 star.

### 2/5 — Boring

*2011-07-13, version 1.3*

Usually I love playing draughts, so I downloaded this only to find out that it's a set game so the computer always wins. Don't bother with this useless app.
