Checkers is played on an 8x8 board with each player starting with 12 pieces on the three rows closest to them. Players take turns moving their pieces diagonally forward to an unoccupied square. If an opponent's piece occupies an adjacent square, a player can capture it by jumping over it to an empty square directly beyond, removing the captured piece from the board. When a piece reaches the opponent's back row, it is "kinged" and gains the ability to move both forward and backward. The game ends when one player captures all the opponent's pieces or blocks them from making a legal move.
