Nice way to throw some checker pieces around without getting mom upset. Playing with a friend is a blast.

I absolutely love this game! It's a real gem! The Kids, ages 11 to 16 that I teach, are addicted to it! They love to battle one another, and they even try challenge me...poor saps, cause I always crush them! What an evil teacher I am! ;-)

Fun to play... But...

There are two problems. First of all, the controls are a bit problematic. All too often i try to throw my piece, and it does nothing, yet takes up my turn. Secondly, until you've won a match, you can lose on the first turn. Then you let the computer go first. I lost several times, not because of poor playing, but because i never got to go. Fix It, and you get that last star. Otherwise, its just great gameplay, cool visuals... And a slightly flawed execution.

Not bad I guess...

It's not checkers, it's like shuffleboard/puck shot on a checkers board. Game play isn't that intense, but it's a well made game. No bugs, but no real thrill. Worth checking out since it's free.
