Dama

Checkers is a popular board game for two participants, of which there are a large number of varieties, but the majority of people are only familiar with the classic version. The application Turkish Checkers offers a look at the popular game from a completely different angle – the difference is that the moves are not made diagonally, but vertically or horizontally. By the way, the initial arrangement of the chips themselves on the playing field is also completely different – they are placed on the second and third horizontal.

You can capture an opponent’s checker only if there is free space behind it (everything here is the same as in the classics). A standard piece is not capable of walking and eating backwards, this is the prerogative of the king only, which you can become by reaching the extreme horizontal. The queen in the project Turkish Checkers is endowed with truly wide powers – she is allowed to move and eat opponent’s elements in any plane and on as many cells as she likes, naturally, only vertically or horizontally.

The goal in this version of checkers is no different from the goal in the international version – to make sure that the opponent does not have the opportunity to make a move, while this can be done by locking a piece or simply “eating” all the wards of the opposite color. The interface in the board game Turkish Checkers is concise and involves only changing the color of the board. Pleased with the presence of several modes – local (Bluetooth) and online multiplayer, as well as fights with artificial intelligence. A gamer can follow his progress through detailed statistics, which also fixes his place in the global ranking.
