How to play

Draughts (English Checkers) is a two-player game on an 8×8 board. Each side starts with 12 pieces on the dark squares of the first three rows.

Men move one square diagonally forward. Kings move one square diagonally in any direction.
To capture, jump diagonally over an adjacent opponent piece into an empty square beyond it. If another capture is available from the landing square, you must continue jumping in the same turn.
Captures are compulsory — if any capture is available, you must take it.
A man that reaches the far rank is promoted to a king.
You win when your opponent has no pieces left or no legal move.

Computer difficulty: Easy plays a random legal move, Medium picks the best move one ply ahead, and Hard searches four plies using a piece-count and mobility heuristic.
