Why checkers is truly a game for peasants

Never enjoyed checkers, even as a kid. It's in the same category as tic tac toe for me.

Chess players rarely play checkers well.

... oh, wait.

I thought you said "pheasants".

Never mind.

Checkers is a game of strategy, everything is the same piece and can be lost

Chess is a game of blundering your queen

Chess is a game that is very complicated

Checkers is simple to learn

Actually, i rarely play checkers. Not since i was seven or eight years old. Man, that a long, long, long time ago. 😉

Only people with red hats play checkers

There is a whole club full of us who play both.

Checkers makes my brain shrink, that's why I keep well away from it & the people that play it.

checkers i love checkers

It’s true that checkers primarily uses two types of pieces – kings and pawns – but that simplicity is actually part of what makes the game so elegant and engaging. Checkers offers a variety of intriguing versions across different cultures, each with unique rules. For instance, in some versions, pawns can capture backward, and kings move like bishops in chess, gliding across the board diagonally. In American checkers, pawns capture forward only, while kings can move in any direction but still just one square at a time. These variations bring a layer of strategic depth that keeps the game exciting, especially in fast-paced formats like bullet.

Also, my friend and I are currently developing an online platform, where you’ll soon be able to enjoy checkers in various styles and formats. Right now, it’s called CheckersVIP.com, but we're planning to move to a new and improved site at CheckersClub.com. We’d love for you to join us there to experience all the possibilities checkers has to offer!
