Checkers Game: Jumping and Capturing
A piece can only be moved diagonally on to the dark squares unless it has been crowned as the king.
However, as each player must capture the opponent’s pieces, they can do so by jumping over them (again only diagonally) to the next empty diagonal space if available.
