About
Pitfall Checkers is international draughts with a single, game-changing twist: every captured square becomes a hole. Step on a hole as a pawn and you fall in. Kings ignore holes and fly over them. Suddenly every capture is a real choice, not just a free piece.
Features
• Full international draughts rules: 10x10 board, mandatory captures, longest-chain rule, kings, draws.
• Three AI difficulties for this classic strategy board game: Easy for first-time players, Medium for a challenging game, Hard for serious draughts fans.
• 2-player pass-and-play on one device, or solo against the AI.
• Puzzle library sorted by difficulty, from one-dot warm-ups to five-dot brain teasers.
• Move hints on Easy mode if you want a guide.
• Save and resume any game.
• Five languages: English, Russian, Dutch, French, German.
• No accounts, no ads, no tracking. Fully offline.
Why holes change everything
• A four-piece capture chain that opens a hole on your own side can be a trap, not a triumph.
• Sacrificing a pawn into your opponent's path turns into a defensive weapon.
• Endgames get sharper as the board literally shrinks.
Pitfall Checkers is built by a solo indie. No microtransactions during play. One optional Premium unlock if you enjoy it.
