How it feels

A calm and methodical turn-based board game that feels like a friendly match over coffee, with simple yet strategic depth.

What players say

Players say it is a solid, clean version of checkers with online play, puzzles and multiple rule sets. The calm music is a highlight. Many dislike that the forced jump rule cannot be turned off, and some report a bug where the AI difficulty slider works backwards.
