Rules

The game is played on an 8x8 board. The pieces are placed like a checkerboard, alternating the colors, except on the 4 central squares. There are 3 possible movements given in the order of proirity: a piece can jump over an opposing orthogonal piece and capture it (several captures can be made but only by continuing in the same direction), a piece can take a step diagonally towards a free space orthogonal to an opposing piece and a piece can take a step diagonally towards a free space. The player who has no more pieces loses.
