Cubic checkers is a game that seems to be a mix of Checkers and Chess. A hierarchic variation of chess for two players. The game is played with eight white and eight black cubes on a checkerboard of 8 x 8 squares. Sides of a cube contain symbols rook, bishop, knight and pawn.
The rules of the game, at first are a bit difficult, but when you get used to them, it is addictive, very addictive. It has all the flavor of chess and the speed of checkers,... Great! The game also includes some demonstration matches s you can see the game in action and learn how to play.
You can play versus the computer to practice your skills and then play versus your friends or over internet.
While it is a variation of chess, it has different rules, the first thing you have to know is that the symbol on the top side of a cube determines its power, it is not its mobility that it is always diagonal.
The winner is a player whose opponent has only three cubes on the board. The game is draw if both players have made consecutively ten moves without jumping across any cube.
