It is known in the west as Turkish Draughts or Turkish Checkers. It is very popular and there are clubs in Turkey and Germany organizing tournaments. Complicated endgame problems have been published in books, some of them dating from the 19th century. The left down square field should be dark. Players start with 16 men that are lined up on each side, in two rows, skipping the furthest back. Men can move forward or sideways one square, capturing by means of a jump. When a man reaches the back row, he is promoted to a dama "Lady" at the end of the move.

Also made a minor update to the Russian Checkers review. I was keeping my impressions in a little text file, mainly as a reminder of what to focus on in future blog posts, but have decided to put them up here in case they might help anyone looking for something to play but perhaps lacking the time to try everything until they find a hit. What really bugs me is the promotion rule, which needlessly punishes early promotions and leads to the awkward rule forcing Pawns to remain in suspended animation if no captured pieces are available. Honestly I would probably score this game higher, except that in its wake this promotion rule appears to have become more popular, which is a problem for me. The linear movement aspect feels out of place in a Draughts game, and the kings are a bit too strong for my taste. I can, however, see why people like this game, so I give it a good score on that basis; certainly opening play will be varied, and the draw rate is low. Emergo — Here Christian boils down column checkers variants like Bashni and Stappeldammen to their essentials. The result is a frantic tactical game characterised by a somewhat confusing placement phase, followed by a violent explosion of captures in all different directions. If I can ever get past the placement aspect, I feel this game could become a favourite of mine. Sygo — A Go variant that uses the Symple move protocol combined with Othello-style toggle-capture. I started out a bit skeptical of this game, given my love for Go itself; most Go variants are a fun distraction at best. Sygo however does have a distinct personality, and the Symple protocol is a slice of genius. Symple — Formidable.

Kings are strong as in Dameo, but men here are also more mobile, which feels a bit better in my opinion, playok dama. Symple is one of the most remarkable and exciting discoveries to be found in modern abstract playok dama, in my opinion.

After a threat of legal action from Cronix , the company with the rights to Internet versions of the game, Kurnik developed a similar game called "Literaxx" Literaki ;- in Polish , which differed from Scrabble only because of a different board, but Cronix considered these changes too minor for it not to be a copyright violation. Marek Futrega then developed Literaki ;- into a new word-based game with different rules than Scrabble. The Literaki ;- rules are public domain.

From those simple ingredients arise some complex tactics, with the taking and holding of initiative being perhaps the most important element. Capture occurs exactly as in Pente, but capture is not an alternate win condition as in that game. You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post. HexSymple — Translating the Symple protocol to the hex grid works great, and produces a game with a strikingly different feel; the additional connectivity options present on the hexagonal grid shift the focus more toward strategy than tactics.

Unlike other checkers variants, since enemy pieces are removed immediately upon capture; as pieces are captured and removed from the board, it is possible to cross the same square previously occupied by a captured piece more than once empty the 2nd time and afterwards in the same capturing sequence. It is known in the west as Turkish Draughts or Turkish Checkers. Tumbleweed — A rare example of a game birthed on the BGG forums that has gained some kind of community around itself, thanks to the herculean promotional efforts of the creator Mike Zapawa and superfan Alek Erickson. Remember to update both if you want to test this, the updates were released yesterday Feb. After each capture the piece is removed from the board before jumping is continued; its removal may open up additional captures previously impossible.

That seems to be what it has come down to now. It seems that might be last on the list, so I might just wait for the official release. Men can move forward or sideways one square, capturing by means of a jump. I still like Checkers, but damn. Sign me up. American Pool Checkers — A game criminally underrated in its home country, American Pool Checkers is a close relative of Russian Checkers, where men no longer promote in mid-move. The result is very hectic, with spectacular combos appearing frequently, and often in surprising ways. Multiplicity — Some of you will know of Omega , a clever game that uses multiplicative scoring, leading to interesting consequences when working out how to build groups that achieve the best score.
