About Master Checkers

Master Checkers packs a full local versus game into a single browser page — press play and you are in. Short rounds and simple controls make it a perfect couch-versus game. You can even share the keyboard with a friend — the game includes a local two-player mode. It is also unblocked here, so it runs fine on school or office networks.

How to play Master Checkers

Win more rounds than your opponent; every match is short enough for an instant rematch. On mobile, the on-screen touch controls take over — tap / drag — play. Give yourself a round or two to warm up — the difficulty ramps up quicker than it looks.

• Mouse move diagonally, jump to capture

Tips to get better at Master Checkers

• Swap sides between matches if the layout gives one player an advantage.
• Play against the CPU a few rounds first to learn the physics before challenging a friend.
• Best-of-five keeps things fair — single rounds are decided by luck as much as skill.
