Russian checkers, also known as Shashki or "I swear I was just looking at the board!" is the favorite pastime in Russia, Eastern Europe, and Israel. The objective? To either scoop up all your opponent's pieces like they're last week's borscht or to block them so thoroughly that they start contemplating their life choices. It's like chess, but with fewer knights and more shenanigans!
- The King can move diagonally to any free square, backward or forward. - If after capturing an enemy’s piece you still have an allowed a jumps move then you must continue the jump sequence (jump is mandatory). - The jump with a simple piece is done both forward and backward.
