Play free checkers online

Let’s start this guide entirely dedicated to how to play checkers for free by talking about online solutions, that is to say the games that can be used directly from the Web browser (any) and from any location, without having to install absolutely anything on the computer. Among the countless solutions belonging to the category in question, I recommend those of SkillGamesBoards , an online platform through which you can have fun with many table games of various kinds, including checkers, challenging other players around the world or inviting your own friends to join the game. To play, however, it is worth pointing out, you need to create an account on the site (it only takes a few moments, nothing too complicated!).

To start your first game of online checkers, the first step you need to take is therefore to connect to the SkillGamesBoards website and click on the create an account link . Then type, in the appropriate empty fields that are offered to you on the screen, the username you want to use, your e-mail address and the password you want to associate with the account you are about to create (twice). Then enter the characters displayed at the bottom in the field dedicated to the security code and click on the Create account button .

Then complete the registration procedure by logging in to the email box associated with the email address specified above, opening the message that was sent to you by SkillGamesBoards, taking note of the code contained within it, typing it in the appropriate text field on the games website page and clicking the Activate button .

Once logged in to the service, click on Checkers 10 × 10 or Checkers 8 × 8 depending on the type of game you intend to undertake and then take a look at the game settings in order to customize it according to your habits and your needs (eg you can adjust the settings of the first move, those of the clock, etc.) and then click on the Start game button located at the bottom.

Now copy the link that was provided to you on the screen and share it with your friends to invite them to take part in the game or wait for some other player connected to SkillGamesBoards to decide to join the game. Then you will find yourself in front of the checkers table and you can immediately start playing.

If, on the other hand, you wish to join a game of others, I would like to point out that you can do so simply by clicking on the Play button that you find in correspondence with the various open games (if available) in the list in the checkers settings screen.

Play checkers for free from Windows

If, on the other hand, you are interested in playing checkers for free by installing a real video game on your computer, I can not help but suggest you try  CheckerBoard . It is a free checkers game that allows you to challenge the CPU or a second opponent locally. It also allows you to train in various ways to better elaborate the various moves to be made. In short, it is absolutely recommended!

To play it, first download it to your computer by connecting to the game’s official website and clicking on the CB_setup.exe link  located at the top of the left sidebar. Then open the file in .ex format just obtained and start the installation procedure by clicking first on Yes and then on Next four times in a row, then on  Install and finally on  Finish .

Once the game window is displayed on the screen, translate CheckerBoard into Italian by clicking first on the Options menu , then on the wording Language and finally on Italian . At this point, click on the Analysis engines menu  , select Choose engine and set dama.dll as the primary engine to set the game with the Italian checkers engine.

Once you have completed all the steps above you can finally begin to challenge the CPU according to the rules of the Italian checkers. If you prefer, you can also play in full screen by clicking on the button with the rectangle attached to the game window that you find in the upper right part of the same. I would also like to point out that if you want you can change the appearance of the pieces by selecting one of the available items after clicking on the Pieces item attached to the Options menu .

If instead of against the CPU you want to test your skills in checkers with a friend of yours (locally), you have to go to the Options menu , select  Game mode and choose the item 2 players .

Play checkers for free from Mac

Do you use a mac? No problem! Again you can play checkers for free. The title that I recommend is  Fantastic Checkers Free , try it now and you will see that you will not regret it. This is a checkers videogame for macOS / OS X with very accurate graphics that allows you to challenge the CPU or another opponent locally. It also includes three difficulty levels that you can train with to improve your skills.
