CHECKERS

A simple, rather child-like game? Some may believe this to be true, but in reality, a great game of checkers can be as intriguing and as complex as a championship game of chess. Of course, die-hard chess players may argue this point. However, have they indulged in a competitively strategic game of checkers as played by long-time, experienced enthusiasts in the world of board games? Probably not or they would readily alternate between the strategies and decision-making required in both a game of chess and a game of checkers.

Checkers is such a flexible game that children can play it at a novice or intermediate level, whereas adolescents and adults can become experts at far more advanced checkers play and thereby, at more complex, levels of game intrigue.

Individual expertise can be developed by studying the different board strategies available and by practicing the game of checkers on a regular basis. Proficiency in checkers can be gained by playing the board game one on one at a table setting or by playing against an opponent on a computer site such as ours or by playing checkers against the computer’s techniques. Are you game?

A good place to start is by going back in time to the origin of the game of checkers. This ‘simple’ board game has been in existence for hundreds of years and thus, many generations of children and adults have enjoyed a good game of checkers throughout history since ancient times.

However, the game of checkers was not always called ‘checkers’; in fact, checkers has roots in the ancient Egyptian game of ‘Alquerque’.
