Gameplay Overview
In Checkers Legend, players take turns moving their pieces across an 8×8 board. The objective is to capture all of your opponent’s pieces or block them so they cannot make a move. The game is played with two players, each controlling either the dark or light pieces.
Players move their pieces diagonally and can capture an opponent’s piece by jumping over it.
