### How to Play & Core Mechanics

The goal is simple: capture all your opponent's pieces or block them so they cannot move. You play on the dark squares of an 8x8 board.

* **Moving:** Regular pieces move diagonally forward one square to an adjacent empty dark square.
* **Capturing:** Jump over an opponent's adjacent piece diagonally if the square beyond it is empty. You must capture if a jump is available. Multiple jumps in one turn are allowed.
* **King Me!** When a piece reaches the far row (the "king's row"), it becomes a King. Kings can move and jump diagonally both forward and backward, making them powerful tools.

The **dynamic design** and smooth controls make every move satisfying. **Challenge your strategic mind** in lively matches against clever, adjustable AI opponents or a friend in local pass-and-play mode.

### Tips to Dominate the Board

Outmaneuvering your opponent is key to victory. Here are some essential tips:

* **Control the Center:** Pieces in the center have more mobility and control than those stuck on the sides.
* **Plan for Kings:** Safely advance your back-row pieces. Getting a King early can shift the game in your favor.
* **Force Jumps:** Set up your pieces to force your opponent into making a jump that leaves their other pieces vulnerable.
* **Trade Wisely:** Sometimes, sacrificing a piece can create a powerful double-jump opportunity or break your opponent's formation.
* **Think Ahead:** Always try to anticipate your opponent's next move. The best strategy is often defensive and offensive at once.
