Deleting. Life is hard enough without losing Checkers games. ### 4/5 — Simple to play *2024-03-25, version 3.25* Good game, in network play mode it would be great if there was a notification to say it’s your turn. ### 2/5 — Lousy as an internet game *2023-07-27, version 3.25* Other player never has to move. Game Center constantly logs you out and games disappear midway through. Really a poor excuse for an app. Players frequently quit, and there’s a hack where if you’re winning, and your opponent asks for a draw, and you click on “no” to the requested draw, your chips become your opponent’s and vice-versa, and you are now the losing player. It’s like this app maker knows nothing about checkers whatsoever. Microsoft games for checkers was the best to play against other good players, but sadly, Microsoft shut them down last year. The search for a worthy app continues... ### 3/5 — Few Issues *2021-02-06, version 3.01* I love this game! Clean with no extras! I have three issues. It won’t keep score. Rematches with online friends put you in a weird loop. Maybe get rid of the pop up confirmation after each move? Other than that it’s perfect!! Make the changes!! We need this game in quarantine. 🥺 ### 5/5 — Freezing *2020-11-26, version 3.00* I don not like the new piece on the checkerboard. For some reason they are not clear? The pieces look fuzzy and undefined. Can you make then look crisp? Sometimes, when the computer had two possible choices the game freezes and I have to set a new game from menu. Otherwise, I am always enjoying a game or two. John-Paul Martin ### 3/5 — Latest update graphics look horrible. *2020-11-25, version 3.00* I play checkers several times a week. I enjoy this game. However the new update changed the graphic to something horrible. I’m looking for a new Checkers game. I want my old texture back. ### 5/5 — New checkers *2020-11-24, version 3.00* I don’t care for this updated checkers. The old one was better, even though it would crash from time to time. ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2020-11-24, version 3.00* I can’t thank you enough for the update to this game. Thank you so much! ☺️ ### 5/5 — Tg *2020-05-24, version 2.60* Gy🎗🎗🎗🎗🏅🏅🏅🏅🥉🥉🏅🏅🏅🥇🥇🥇🥇🏵♟♟♟♟♟♟♟♟🎫 ### 4/5 — Charlie *2020-05-21, version 2.60* Needs to be more challenging ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game freezes *2026-06-27, version 3.25* I would like it, but when I purchased no ads - the game freezes. ### 1/5 — Only ads *2025-09-28, version 3.25* Delete this ap ### 1/5 — Ad removal doesn’t work *2025-09-21, version 3.25* I paid to remove the ads! I contacted customer support. No reply. Still ads every time I open the app! Horrible customer service! ### 1/5 — Pésimo *2024-12-24, version 3.25* Pagué para remover la publicidad y sigue apareciendo. Es una estafa!!! ### 1/5 — Online doesn’t work *2024-10-23, version 3.25* The online, multiplayer feature does not function. ### 1/5 — Really hard to see black on brown. *2023-07-06, version 3.01* If you want to see this one star turn into five, you’ll either change the colours or add option for colors. Red and white would probably be the best ### 1/5 — Horrible game *2022-04-12, version 3.01* This is a horrible game. You have to play backwards. Your checkers are on the opposite side of board. Wish I had not bought it. No way to contact the seller. ### 1/5 — Bad Update *2021-06-14, version 3.01* The most recent update for this app displays even more cartoonish color schemes. It looks worse with every update. ### 1/5 — Not work *2021-01-13, version 3.01* Can’t play network ### 1/5 — Lousy as an internet game *2020-11-30, version 3.00* Other player never has to move. Game Center constantly logs you out and games disappear midway through.

The “undo” button makes the gameplay easier, along with a finetuned difficulty that is very good. Also, the computer is very good for players that are improving their checkers skills like me. I would truly rate this app 5 stars. It is ideal wherever I go so that I can relax my mind. 😊 ### 5/5 — Good practice *2023-08-07, version 3.25* I play this game so l can beet my dad at checkers and because it’s fun!! ### 5/5 — Checkers *2021-06-24, version 3.01* This game is awesome I love it I have won so many times so make sure to get this game ### 5/5 — Removed features *2021-04-02, version 3.01* The newest version looks worse and took away a feature where the computer and player could swap who moves first. Was worth it. Not anymore. ### 5/5 — Old Version is better *2020-12-19, version 3.01* This new update is not pleasing to the eyes. ### 5/5 — Love this *2020-12-04, version 3.01* I purchased this app like omg 2008 and it has been the best app in the world now there are new graphics ### 5/5 — Cheakers *2020-12-02, version 3.00* Fun and challenging. Good for consent ration. ### 5/5 — Blows *2020-11-26, version 3.00* Change it back. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
