How to Play

Flying Kings Draughts is played on a 16×16 board with dark squares only. Each player starts with 48 pieces across 6 rows.

• Goal: Capture all opponent pieces or leave them with no legal moves.
• Movement: Regular pieces move diagonally forward one square. Kings move any number of squares diagonally in any direction.
• Captures: Jump over an adjacent enemy piece to land behind it — the captured piece is removed. Kings can fly any distance.
• Mandatory captures: If a capture is available you must take it. You must also take the maximum number of pieces possible.
• Promotion: Reach the opponent's back row to become a King (♛).
• Flying King: A king can jump over an enemy from any distance along the diagonal and land anywhere beyond it.
• Must-capture flash: Pieces that must capture will flash on your turn.
