Wrist Checkers
Read full descriptionHide full description
Checkers for Apple Watch — a full game of English draughts, sized for your wrist. Tap a piece and tap where it goes. Taps snap to the nearest legal square, so you are never fighting the small screen. Your movable pieces are marked, legal destinations light up, and anything a jump would capture is flagged before you commit to it. • Three difficulty levels, from a forgiving opponent to a search that will take your pieces apart • Full English draughts rules — forced captures, multi-jumps tapped out one hop at a time, crowning • Multi-jumps count as a single move, so undo takes the whole chain back • Your game is saved automatically; pick it up mid-move days later • Runs entirely on the watch. No iPhone, no account, no network, no data collected
