Super Checkers

Super Checkers adds an element of complexity and interest to the game of checkers. Except as otherwise noted below, the rules of Super Checkers are the same as the rules of conventional checkers.

As with conventional checkers, if a player moves a checker to his (or her) eighth row, that piece is crowned to become a king by placing another checker on top of it. In Super Checkers, if a king moves back to the player’s first row, that king is crowned a second time to become a super king by placing another checker on top of it, thus becoming a stack three checkers high. Super kings are not confined to the black squares but can move to any adjacent square. A super king can jump a piece along a row or column as well as diagonally.
