How many players can participate in a game of Checkers?

Asked a year ago
A game of Checkers can be played by two players. It is a 2-player board game where each player starts with 12 pieces, typically differentiated by color, on opposite ends of the gameboard. The objective is to capture all of the opponent's pieces or block them, preventing any further moves. Players take turns moving one of their pieces diagonally forward, capturing the opponent's pieces by jumping over them. When a piece reaches the farthest row of the opponent's side, it is "kinged" and gains the ability to move backward as well. With its simplicity and strategic depth, Checkers is an engaging and classic game that can be enjoyed by two players of all ages.
