Jokomisiada Magnetic CHECKERS game - magnetic POCKET - for 2 people GR0838

Magnetic travel checkers in a metal tin is a compact version of the classic strategy game, perfect for playing at home, while travelling, on holiday or during longer car journeys.

The set is packed in a metal tin that also serves as the game board when opened . This makes it easy to keep all the pieces together and store the game neatly after play.

A major advantage of the set is the magnetic checkers , which stay securely in place on the board. This makes the game much more convenient during travel, as the pieces are less likely to move if the tin is accidentally bumped.

The game is designed for 2 players . Each player receives pieces in one colour and places them on the dark squares of the board.

The rules are based on classic checkers. Players move their pieces diagonally by one square. If an opponent’s piece is on the next square and the square behind it is free, the player can jump over and capture it. Multiple captures may also be possible in a single turn.

When a piece reaches the final row on the opponent’s side, it becomes a king , which can move diagonally both forwards and backwards.

The winner is the player who captures all of the opponent’s pieces.
