In a standard game of draughts (also known as checkers), each player starts with 12 pieces. The game is played on an 8x8 board, with pieces placed on the dark squares. Therefore, there are a total of 24 pieces in play at the beginning of the game.
In draughts, when a player has no legal moves available on their turn, the game ends, and that player loses. This situation typically occurs when all of their pieces are blocked or captured. If both players run out of moves simultaneously, the game can also be declared a draw. The rules may vary slightly depending on the version of draughts being played.
