Checkers at it's best

It's way cool that you can adjust the level to where you can still win at about half the time. Not so easy it's boring yet not so hard you can never win.

Ok, with one glaring error

I just got this app today, and so far it seems pretty good. There is one thing about it that grates on me however. They have a red starting each match. According to the rules of Checkers, black starts each match. This might not sound like much, but it makes one wonder how good the app really is if they can't even get the rules correct.

I'm still going to give it four stars because it's visually appealing, the gameplay seems to be fluid, and the price is right. But I'm holding my final decision until I can play it further to see how good the AI is.
