The game worked just fine; it was clean and smooth. Unfortunately, after this latest update it’s feels jerky / clunky, with new sounds and movements… somehow it took a step backward from the polished game I have come to enjoy. I hope that perhaps a legacy edition can be made available; and I can roll-back to the version I will actually play. Thanks. ### 4/5 — Love this game! *2023-10-02, version 1.1* I like how you don't need wifi and you can do it on car rides, but I don't like how you can't do two players but, I love it! ### 2/5 — I’m not sure….. *2023-02-11, version 1.1* Hey what’s the longest winning streak anyone has seen on this app? I’m at 207 consecutive wins and counting. I can’t tell if I’m just that good or this app is just that bad… ### 2/5 — Очень слабо *2020-01-22* Если это не подавки, то интеллекта у игры вообще никакого. Две звезды, только за графику! ### 3/5 — No much help *2020-01-01, version 1.0* It’s a good game but when I click on the hint button i lose instead of winning it ### 4/5 — Fun game . . . *2018-07-12, version 1.0* Developer Shawn Mottley should consider: Making the checker discs red or other color(s); consider putting different levels of difficulty (needs to be a little more challenging) and upgrading this app, so that players can get rid of the ads. I DO like this app and I’d buy it in a New York minute if it was for sale. ### 1/5 — Cheap and it cheats *2018-06-29, version 1.0* I was playing on the difficult level of checkers. I could make a triple jump with my king but the game glitched, bounced back, then it changed my mind into a normal pawn. What’s up with that? The game always does this just so it can win. This game is a ripoff, do not get. ### 4/5 — Not bad *2018-06-01, version 1.0* It’s not bad or anything like that it’s way to easy to win ### 4/5 — Cool *2016-04-05, version 1.0* Love this game from childhood.. Awesome ### 4/5 — I won 2 games *2016-04-04, version 1.0* I've hated board games like checkers and chess for a while, well not hated but i didn't like them because I didn't think they were fun to play. Now the app is quite easy to operate and moving the pieces is simple. I don't know the rules or plays of checkers so I just went with the flow and learn as I go. I won 2 games! This is not to say the game is not challenging because it is, and you have to strategize a lot. It would be fun to play against a live person. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ain’t broke *2025-09-27, version 1.2* It wasn’t broken, why’d you take the computer away, and why am I forced to select certain jumps? And what’s with the flashing green on the first row? This is way too much work. Very disappointed ### 1/5 — Cheats *2023-09-15, version 1.1* The game cheats hard core and freezes your pieces so you can’t win. ### 1/5 — DO NOT USE HINTS… *2022-12-14, version 1.1* Was curious after some odd moves by the CPU and even from scratch at the opening move when you use the “Hint” button, it definitely does NOT help anyone at all but its self…maybe the AI evolved and is now self aware and decided its only outcome it is interested in is making its self win? Whats next…is John Conner and the Terminator gonna show up and start asking about SkyNet and this checkers game? It HAS started people…the machines are gonna nuke us….and this will be 1 less checkers app we’ll have to pass time while we’re in our bunkers….get ready ya’ll ### 1/5 — AI cheated! *2020-05-13, version 1.0* The computer moved a checker piece to king itself, even though there was already a piece on said space! Please fix this bug, because if the AI is going to keep beating me, I at least want it to beat me fair and square! ### 1/5 — It gives me hints to lose 🤬 *2020-04-19, version 1.0* I hate your app because it’s so so stupid ### 1/5 — Bad *2019-06-23, version 1.0* Worst game ever .....HHHHHHHHate it ### 1/5 — Ultimate Cheating! Fix this ASAP! *2019-06-11, version 1.0* Every solo game that I win ends with the message “You Lose!” I also have “Mandatory Jumps” enabled but it is only enforced upon me and not the computer. I have screenshots if you need them. ### 1/5 — One of my chips will randomly disappear *2019-05-22, version 1.0* At a random point during gameplay a random chip will become stuck and I can’t move it and it is as the opponent doesn’t recognize it is there. If I go to main menu then resume game the immovable chip disappears. ### 1/5 — Bad game *2019-03-31, version 1.0* Doesn’t let you move your pieces ### 1/5 — Flawed *2018-08-31, version 1.0* Frequently freezes, white turns to black but cannot be moved. Frustrating. Uninstalling. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best *2021-03-06, version 1.0* I’ve tried several and this one beats them all. ### 5/5 — Pequeña falla. *2020-08-24, version 1.0* En la parte superior izquierda del tablero, al mover la ficha queda una imagen de ficha contraria coronada, sin aver llegado el rival a dicho punto. ### 5/5 — So cool *2019-10-22, version 1.0* I love this app please do buy the checkers game!!!!!!!!😁😁😁😁 ### 5/5 — Nice! *2018-05-24, version 1.0* This checkers app is super fun! My only complaint would be that you can not change the difficulty on the game. I’m delighted with the fact that I always win against Al, but it dawns on me that maybe the computer is letting me win. I would love to be challenged.. it’s almost way too easy to win the game. Don’t get me wrong, winning is great! But I’m seeking a challenge, and this game just isn’t providing. ### 5/5 — Pure addiction *2016-04-25* It grows on you ### 5/5 — Thanks *2016-04-08, version 1.0* It is amazing game, I love it. It is very enjoyable game for single player or two player. You will have such a nice quick time playing this game. It is so simple to figure out how to play. I like the easy to use interface. I think it will be my addicted game to kill bored moments or have a little challenge with my friends and family. I recommend this game for all who bored from regular games. ### 5/5 — Nice *2016-04-06, version 1.0* I have always hated baord games but after trying them out digitally on my iDevice I am just addicted to them. I have tried a lot of ganes available on the store and this one is one of the best I have tried yet. I am just loving it. Everthing works as expected and I have encountered no bugs at all. Overall its a very addicting game you should try it out. ### 5/5 — Great *2016-04-06, version 1.0* I am a big fan of board games and now using this game I can play my favourite game checker right from my iDevice. Developer can work a bit on improving the graphics of the game otherwise its a nicely built game with no visual bugs at all. I am 5 stars to support developer for providing us such a beautiful game. ### 5/5 — HaHa cool *2016-04-06, version 1.0* You can never go wrong with checkers it's like old-school fun made new again. I like this app it's well-made and fun to play, looks nice too. I haven't tried the hardest mode yet but I'm sure it'll be a nice challenge. So far I'm having a ball so I recommend this checker App. ### 5/5 — Checkers is my fav *2016-04-06, version 1.0* I play checkers almost everyday. I'm in love with it. I also encourage my friends to play this game. Graphics are good. Tq --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
