The rules of Italian checkers are simple:
* It is played with three types of pieces; all pieces move diagonally.
* Pedine (Pawn): You can move Pedine either forward diagonally or sideways. Pedine can capture only Pedines. Pedine is promoted to Dama when it achieves the square where does the other player Dama start from.
* Dama (Queen): Dama can move either forward/backward diagonally. Dama can capture Damas as well as Pedines. Dama is promoted to Damone when it achieves the square where does the other player Damone start from.
* Damone (King): Damone can move in the same way as Dama. Damone can capture any piece.

Capturing
If the player of the checkers can capture opponent's piece, it shall do it. If there are more possibilities how a checkers piece can be captured, the following rules define the precedence:
* The piece which can capture the most of opponent's pieces shall move.
* If there are more than one paths or pieces still possible, then the one with highest rank shall move.
* If there are more than one pieces with the same rank or more than one path for the chosen piece, then the path capturing the biggest number of the highest ranked pieces shall be taken.

Who wins checkers game?
Player who captures all enemy pieces is the winner of the game. If he cannot move since the opponent blocks all his/her pieces, opponent win, player losses.

How to control the checkers?
Just tap on the piece you would like to move and then tap on the target square. In case you would like to do a multiple movement capture, tap on the piece and then on the empty squares which shall be passed, one after the other.

HAVE FUN!
