Checkers - the goal of the game is to capture opponent's pieces. The game lasts until capturing on of the opponent's pieces, or by blocking them so that they cannot move. The player who loses all the checkers or has them blocked, fails.
Giveaway Checkers - the same rules as the Checkers but the player who loses all his pieces, wins.
Draughts - differs from Checkers by: a piece may jump forward and backward, a king can jump diagonally, forward or backward and stop on a vacant square only; a king cannot jump the pieces of the same color; a king is required to jump opponent's piece even if it is not next to this piece in case if this piece is placed diagonally on the same row and if it has a vacant square beyond it.
