ABSTRACT:
The game of the present invention includes a traditional checkerboard (44) and two sets of checkers. Each set includes 15 dark (12) checkers and 15 light (16) checkers. Each set includes 5 single indicator bottoms (4), 5 dual indicator bottoms (28), and 5 triple indicator bottoms (40). Movement of checkers depends on type of indicator bottom: single indicator bottom (4) means lose your turn, dual indicator bottom (28) means play normally, and triple indicator bottom (40) means remove jumping checker from checkerboard (44). Alternate turns are taken by both players advancing diagonally forward one square at a time, trying to avoid capture by the opponent until reaching the opposite end of the checkerboard (44).
