The “star” refers to the board’s distinctive six-pointed shape. Despite its name, the game did not originate in China — the name “Chinese Checkers” was popularized in the United States. In China, the game is known as tiaoqi (跳棋), meaning “jump game.” In Japan, a related variation called “Diamond Game” (ダイヤモンドゲーム) is played with slightly different rules. How to Play: Each player starts with 10 marbles (sometimes 15 in two-player or larger board variations). Your goal is simple: move all your pieces into the opposite corner of the star before your opponents do. This destination area is called your home. Taking Turns: Players take turns moving one piece at a time. On your turn, you can: Move one step to an adjacent empty space OR Jump over a single adjacent piece (yours or an opponent’s) into the empty space directly beyond it You can make multiple consecutive jumps in a single turn, as long as each jump is valid. However, you cannot combine a single-step move and jumps in the same turn. There is no capturing — jumped pieces remain on the board. Turns move clockwise around the board. Strategy Tips: You are not required to make the maximum possible number of jumps. Sometimes stopping a jump chain early can block an opponent or set up a stronger move later. Planning ahead and positioning your pieces efficiently is key to winning. Whether you're playing casually or mastering advanced strategies, Chinese Checkers offers endless fun and challenge.
