About Checkers for Android

Checkers for Android consists of an 8x8 checkers engine and a GUI. The application accepts moves through the touch screen or trackball. An optional "move coach" shows all valid user moves and highlights each last played move. An undo feature can take back up to eight half-moves to correct mistakes. The engine plays at various levels (including random and free-play). By popular request, an option was added to select between mandatory captures (the official rule) or optional captures (a common home rule, but without "huffing", where the piece that should have performed the capture is forfeited; instead the game simply continues). The user can play either side and, independently, view the board from the perspective of white or black.

This is a very fine app that appeals to the true checker fan. If you want a toy app that doesn't follow the rules and is a weak player then look elsewhere. In fact this app, while strong relative to an average player, is well below master strength so whiners should quit complaining and instead develop a little playing skill. See my full review at checkermaven dot com.

Has a very strong engine (and hard to beat!:-( I like it for that, though). I'll be happier if upcoming updates will include other variants, especially CZECH CHECKERS, the most played in my country; PLEASE DO THAT!!

For little kids, and old geezers alike, there needs to be some middle ground or the game is just not worth playing.

This app is so confusing! I don't even know what the heck is going on while I'm playing! It's so stupid! Way more improvement!!!

C70%
by C####:

I have tried several android checker games i did not find the suitable like this one.. Only improvement i would suggest is that, a king should have ability to move far front and back not one step as it is now.. Please make this update.. Sincerely

Manjeka Kelvin:You do know that a king can only move one space at a time just like the rest but it can move backwards. As for it forcing you to take the opponent's piece yea thats a rule. In checkers if you don't take a jump then you lose that piece anyways. You have to strategize and play around that.

K70%
by K####:

As others say this game gives you to move when you don't want to. If your piece had an opportunity to take another piece the game forces you to make the move, even if taking the opponent's piece is going to cost you your piece.

by P####:

Why would it be telling where to move my piece... maybe I want to do it on my own.

D70%
by D####:

Anglo-American Checkers, no bull, no ads, miniscule download size. Seriously it's substantially less than even a severely compressed song. But 5 stars, for Checkers? Just to balance the morons who don't know that Checkers has mandatory captures. When checkers was more widely played, the version with optional captures was considered to be for children and imbeciles. If you look at who the 1-star reviewers are, you will see that it was a sensible distinction.
