Abstract strategy. Node-based capture. Cut the checkers! strips the genre down to pure brain vs brain. Place spheres. Jump opponents. Control the board. No frills. Just ruthless tactical warfare on a graph.

How to Play Cut the checkers!

Your mission is brutal. Capture all enemy pieces. Or leave them with zero legal moves. That's it. Each turn is one action. Place a piece from your reserve. Move along a line. Or jump and eliminate. Mess up once? You lose. The board is unforgiving.

The Core Loop: Place, Move, Capture

Start every round with a reserve of pieces. Your turn? Pick one action. Place a sphere on an empty node. Move your piece to a neighboring point along the lines. Or execute a Capture—jump over one enemy piece to the next empty node. Critical rule: if two or more pieces block your path, no jump. All movement follows the board's lines. No shortcuts. No diagonal leaps. Pure geometry.

Strategy: Board Control & Capture Chains

Watch the turn timer. Every second counts. Plan three moves ahead. Cut off escape routes. Force your opponent into dead zones where they can't place or move. Cluster your pieces near key nodes. Block multi-directional paths. Use your reserve smart—drop pieces where they limit enemy options. One bad placement? They flip the board. Stay aggressive. Stay calculating.
