Read full description

Checkers is played by two opponents, on opposite sides of the game board. One player has the dark pieces; the other has the light pieces. Players alternate turns. A player may not move an opponent's piece. A move consists of moving a piece diagonally to an adjacent unoccupied square. If the adjacent square contains an opponent's piece, and the square immediately beyond it is vacant, the piece may be captured (and removed from the game) by jumping over it. Only the dark squares of the checkered board are used. A piece may move only diagonally into an unoccupied square. Capturing is mandatory in most official rules, although some rule variations make capturing optional when presented. In almost all variants, the player without pieces remaining, or who cannot move due to being blocked, loses the game. Checkers- Professional version has four modes to choose : 1. Computer is black. 2. Computer is red. 3. Computer v.s. Computer. 4. Player v.s. Player. There are three levels that you can choose : 1. Beginner 2. Intermediate 3. Expert

Read full description

The Chess expert is a game, played by two players on a chessboard, consisting of 64 squares, arranged in an 8*8 grid. This game consists of two modes – Single player mode and multiplayer mode. In Single player mode, you will have to compete against the computer. In Multiplayer mode, you can play with your friends. In this game, each of the players, begins the game with 16 pieces - one king, one queen, two rooks, two knights, two bishops and eight pawns. Here, each player, makes moves on the chessboard, until a checkmate is achieved by either of the two players. Checkmate is a scenario in which a player’s king is unable to move further on the chessboard, as he is directly attacked by his opponent. The player who achieves the checkmate wins the game.
