Ratings and reviews

I've had it for years and it used to be good. It's the only game I play on my phone. However, it recently started highjacking the phone with ads. It takes over when trying to play and keeps redirecting to the Play Store. I had to fight it for a couple minutes just to be able to uninstall it. I'm disappointed and done with it.

Never had this happen, before... Started the app, selected single player, put my name, name for the computer, level of difficulty, and pressed start. BOOM! Instantly my phone was high jacked and play store opened, at Least 5 different COMPLETELY UNRELATED APPS, for me to download. The only one I caught the name of was of a Tax app, for filling taxes. Nope! As soon as I got my phone back and was able to get to my home page, I unstalled and am writing this review. All this happening, in 30 seconds

I have never played checkers before this app. Good for beginners and experts. You can set the computer to easy or intermediate. You can also play against your friends which is great because you don't have to set up a board and it is easy to pull out your phone and play. I literally learned how to play checkers from this game, highly recommend
