Move all 15 of your checkers to your home board and then bear them off. The first player to bear off all their checkers wins!

infoHow to Move

• Roll two dice, then move a checker for each — doubles are played four times
• You must use as much of your roll as the position allows; if only one die can be played, it has to be the higher one
• Anything on the bar comes in before anything else moves
• Tap a point to pick a checker up, then tap where it goes; Z takes the move back
• On a keyboard: arrows move the cursor, Enter picks up and plays, R rolls

gavelRules

• A single checker on a point is a 'blot'
• If you land on an opponent's blot, their checker is hit and sent to the bar!
• Hit checkers must enter the board from the start before other moves

infoGame Over

• Once all 15 checkers are in your home board, you can bear them off
• Roll the exact number or higher to remove a checker from the board
• First to remove all 15 checkers wins the game!
