1 or 2 players, rules enforced, pieces glide into position. Play checkers with a friend or play against one of 3 robots on a beautiful wooden checkerboard, or alternatively choose the metal or glass themes. Pieces and squares subtly glow to show you all legal moves. To move, you can either slide a piece or tap a piece and a destination square. Tap the settings to make one side or the other a human player (or both), or just set both sides to computer players and watch the battle unfold.
