Chess, Checkers, and now Kingsters: The Ultimate game of Strategy. Kingsters is an original board game from Onid Games. It takes the classics you grew up with and breaks one big rule: you can jump your own pieces. Hop over a teammate to cross the board, slip around a defense, and chain captures together in a single turn. Every piece moves in any direction from the very first move. Single, double, triple, even quadruple jumps are all fair game. The rules take two minutes to learn. The tactics take a lifetime. === HOW TO PLAY === Each player starts with six pieces in a battle formation. Move any piece one square in any diagonal direction, forward or back. Capture by jumping an enemy piece into the open square behind it. Jump over your own pieces to reposition, set up chains and outflank your opponent. Mix hops and captures in one turn for huge combo moves. Take all of your opponent's pieces to win. Each side gets 10 minutes on the clock. === PLAY YOUR WAY === PLAY US: Battle the computer across four formations and three difficulty levels, or take on the full campaign. PLAY OTHERS: Ranked matches against real players at your level. Put okens on the line and take the pot. TOURNAMENTS: Join a bracket or create your own and invite friends with a code. FOUR KINGS: Four players, one board. Every king for himself, or team up in doubles. PROTECT THE KING: One of your pieces is your King, Lose it and the game is over. === 49 NEW PUZZLES EVERY DAY === A fresh daily challenge plus four puzzle packs every day, from firsts teps to grandmaster trials.
