Chess & Checkers by Vanikar

Chess and draughts on a felt table. One Premium here also unlocks Card Games (59 games) and Board Games by Vanikar — same sign-in, nothing to buy twice.

Online multiplayer chess, draughts and the great board games around them, beautifully reimagined. Play live on private boards with friends and family, or practice against the computer. Chess & Checkers by Vanikar brings twelve boards to one polished table.

TWELVE BOARDS Chess and its family: Chess, Chess960, Crazyhouse, Atomic Chess, and Chaturanga, the ancient Indian game chess grew from. Draughts under four rules: English Draughts (8×8), International Checkers (10×10), Russian Checkers and Suicide Checkers. Chinese Checkers: the six-pointed star for up to six players. Shogi: Japanese chess, where captured pieces come back into play. Hnefatafl: the Viking game of the king's escape.

The rules are built in: the moves a piece may make are shown as you pick it up, jumps are compulsory where the rules say so, and promotion is handled for you.
