Checkers takes 5 minutes to learn and a lifetime to master. Here's the 5-minute part.
Each player lines up 12 pieces on the dark squares of their three closest rows. Red moves first.
Pieces slide diagonally forward one square. Land a jump over an opponent's piece and it's yours — chains allowed!
Reach the far row and stack a second piece on top. Kings move both directions — now the real game begins.

"Heavier and nicer than sets twice the price. The latch-shut board means no more lost pieces under the sofa."
"Bought the giant size for the cabin. Grandpa vs. grandkids is now a weekly tournament. Worth every penny."
"The spare pieces and write-on gift box are such thoughtful touches. Gifted three sets this Christmas."
