Previous bad reviews don't understand how the game of checkers is played at an advanced level – Checkers - Deluxe HD Review

This is really a great game. I feel sorry for the manufacturer as i don't think the previous bad reviewers totally understand how the game of checkers is played at a more advanced level. most USA and international checkers tournaments play with a force jump rule. I think some reviewers do not know this. I am a mid level checkers player and can easily beat the game on the easiest difficulty setting. However, it proves more challenging at the more advanced levels. The corner the computer sometimes retreats to and stays in is a standard move and one can easily drive it out of the corner if they follow a simple envelopment strategy. This game forces you to learn standard moves to become a much better checkers player. The only complaint I have is that this version does not have the ability to declare a draw. If, towards the end of a game, both players have only one or two checkers each, it is impossible to win the game and you can't declare a draw. The computer will not give up. You either have to quit the current game or intentionally lose. Once I know in my head I've played to a draw, I usually quit and start a new game. this is a great game and can teach you how to be a great checkers player if you simply study and observe how the Computer plays against you and takes advantage of your mistakes. Copy what it does for the most part and you will learn how to win!
