Giveaway Checkers
About the game
Giveaway checkers turns the usual goal around
In giveaway checkers, the objective is to lose all your pieces or have no legal move left. It uses a familiar checkers board, but a promising capture in an ordinary game can be the wrong move here.
Captures are compulsory. Arrange your pieces so the opponent must take them, and look ahead to the entire jump sequence.
- Reverse the objective
- Lose every piece or run out of legal moves to win.
- Compulsory captures
- Use required jumps to steer your opponent’s next move.
- New combinations
- Plan exchanges that would be unusual in standard checkers.
- Familiar board
- Keep the Russian checkers movement rules and change the goal.
