### 5/5 — GOAT

*2025-08-19*

Love walking these computers

### 3/5 — OK but…

*2025-06-02*

Every 2nd game there’s a painful advertisement.

### 5/5 — Me

*2024-12-11*

Very good

### 5/5 — Best yet

*2024-10-26*

This is the best checker playing opportunity I’ve found so far in my online search.

### 4/5 — Proper rules good game but

*2024-09-12, version 5.0*

The devs did not secure any third party hosts so the player pool is limited to whomever downloaded this app. 
So basically everyone spends 4 minutes looking for a match and then never bothers again and just play against the AI. 
A growing issue across many multiplayer games today.

It’s too bad there are not any people to play with. 
I remember the old fireside checker rooms on aol and yahoo games were great before ppl botted with Sage and worse programs. 

Now with the way AI is progressing why not set one to discover botting in checkers and all games for that matter? It’s pretty a pretty easy concept, a human can only calculate so fast. 
You know your games and can set the variables that govern it’s responses.

Put a timer on play and if a move is made at an unattainable human calculated speed for said “rank” / experience what ever then the AI can auto kick the cheater. It’s not perfect but it’s a start. 

You gamer devs need to do something to fight back, this is only going to get worse. 
I don’t know a single person my age interested in the next shooter like a halo/cod/battlefield. 90% of the population is using a Cronus Zen or worse on PC’s so what is the point. The only game that will blow up this year is going to be the depravity driven Grand Theft Auto. 

Our dominance in sports, innovative abilities and superior hand eye coordination are being lost to Chinese based companies who push botting devices across as many outlets as possible. 
Not even checkers is safe, as a matter of fact chess and checkers were some of the first games these programs were proven on. 

It’s time you guys get off the chair and get together and make some universal changes to coding in direct coordination with an AI based platform. I don’t own a fur coat and I can’t magically take you to the Mountain Dew.

The only way to stop this wave of skill sapping exploited coding, and bring humans back to the game is to use the very exploits against them. 
It’s high time one or all of you guys sit down and make a universal anti code to catch this as it’s being scripted, in real time on your platforms against you and us. Get it done, talk to people about it, this is your field not mine. 
May the force be with you. KillerButts

Realistic sounds  and visuals. Easy but satisfying to beat computer on lower levels. Like it a lot.

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2022-03-19*

If you love checkers you will literally LOVE this!It is  checkers on the go and i can only have games that don’t track anything so it is on the go not looking at any of your information so that’s why I love it and I don’t like having to carry a checkered board everywhere I go when I can have it on my phone that I take everywhere it is the best I recommend getting it!!!!

### 3/5 — Game Center

*2021-10-19*
