Best game ever
Mon Jul 19 2021 Emma138/;95592This is the best app in world history. If you get this game it starts off easy then it gets a little harder. You do not have to buy anything. There are different checker colors. After you win a game you get a star. When you have enough stars you can get more colors.
Mandatory capture? No thanks.
Tue Jun 29 2021 -E-L-L-A-This very, very, very annoying feature ruins a decent game. If you are in a position where you have the ability to capture an opposite token, the game forces you. Strategy goes out the window. There are times when it forces me to use my KINGS to jump over a piece that really isn’t a problem to me, and I immediately get jumped over in return. What’s the point of this feature? To make it harder on us, or easier on the AI we’re fighting against. I really don’t understand the need for this “mandatory capture.” It also ruins critical moves to save other tokens. If I’m in a position where one token is totally safe and the other is in immediate danger, instead of saving the token in danger (the rational decision), it forces you to use the other one to jump over another token. WHAT? The point of this review, great game but I hate the mandatory capture. It ruins the entire game.
The best classical game of checkers , but has a bug
Sat Sep 17 2022 shotgunsmutekI just downloaded this game and while playing , when I had a great double jump to become a king, it refused to let me make the jump. It keeps lighting up to show me to jump. Yet it won’t do it! It did this just before and I was able to finally make the move after many attempts. So it must be a bug…HOW AGGRAVATING!!!! Yet it’s telling me “ mandatory jump” ! I DONT know what I’m doing wrong ? I put on the American game. Maybe I am choosing the wrong one from the one I’ve always played since a child? I never knew there were other options of playing checkers? Please….can someone PLEASE help me? I don’t want to delete the App because it really is the best game of checkers I’ve come across in the App Store.
Garbage AI Ruins an Extremely Easy Concept
Wed Apr 21 2021 Matt KesnerWhen talking about a classic game like checkers, it’s really hard to mess up. Somehow these developers have failed at designing any sort of difficulty scale in their AI. Everything after Beginner is essentially the exact same AI from what I can tell. I have the same number of Wins in Easy difficulty as I do in Expert. If the AI is fixed to a point of being relatively useful, then I may reconsider my review. Until then, it stands. If you’re going to be a part of a paid monthly subscription, there’s a higher standard of quality expected.
1 min in and I already found somthing I hate
Mon Apr 12 2021 fire cubOk love this but I got this game like 5 mins ago and I already found something that I HATE.
So while your in a match if you can kill it MAKES YOU! You can’t do any other move that’s not that kill, so not only is the annoying but it puts you in moments after you kill where your opponent gets a double or even a triple kill, or even getting you stuck, sure it can point out kills you can do but not MAKE you do it! It’s a very frustrating thing.
Please fix this, just wanted to point it out.
I like it but there are several annoying things
Tue Apr 13 2021 wm8925Ok so I feel like the AI is pretty good and overall I like the game. That said why can’t you turn off the thing where you “win” before you capture the last piece??? Seems like it took more effort my to put in the game. It’s like the game rage quits and you don’t get the satisfaction of finishing. Plus if you don’t see the trap, it can leave you confused as to what happened.
So boring
Fri Dec 31 2021 LAO-YAOOne of the most boring games I’ve ever played. Don’t get me wrong, it’s checkers, I didn’t expect much, but the only mode you can play is just random games vs cpu. Once a day they grace you with the chance to do a tournament with the ai but only once a day. For a game on apple arcade you think they’d actually allow you to play the game and not restrict you on how many times you can do something. It’s almost like having “lives” in a free to play game. I know free to play checker apps with more features so I’ll stick with them
Awesome game
Wed Jul 12 2023 I love this checkers gameThis is awesome. I played it for months now every day game this should be the best game I ever played. It gives you difficulties anything you want in checkers me and my friend love playing this game all the time. If you’re reading the script, you should get this game immediately.
Mandatory capture? Seriously??
Wed Oct 13 2021 Bmth_05I just got this game not even 10 minutes ago and I’m already deleting because of this extremely stupid feature, like the other guy said, critical thinking really goes out the window. The point is try to avoid being captured, is it not? This feature literally puts you in the path TO get captured over and over again. Smh fix this feature and people might actually not delete it 5 minutes after downloading
Not how I learned how to play.
Tue May 04 2021 DravenGSXFirst of all, the art is beautiful! But maybe I just didn’t learn right, but there is no such thing as mandatory capture. Every time the game makes me do a mandatory capture, my piece also gets taken, because I’m put in a spot where the computer can get me piece. Again maybe I just learned wrong, but I don’t think there is a mandatory capture.
