Equipment:

  • 1 - 8x8 Checker or Chess board
  • 29 - black checkers or disks
  • 29 - red checkers or disks

Player 1 takes one color of disks and one corner of the board. Player two takes the other color and the opposite corner of the board. Each player places their disks on the board.

The object of the game is to capture your opponent's 'King' (tallest stack of disks of a single color) before they can capture your King. If your opponent has more than one 'King', you can capture any of your opponent's Kings.
