Description

This game was very popular in ancient Rome, especially among the Roman legionnaires. Tournaments have been held on this game. This is a classic military tactical game, the goal of which is to capture as many enemy chips or the eagle of the legion (king) as possible.
The game can be played with artificial intelligence, together with another person on the same device, or with a rival online in multiplayer mode. You can also watch other players' games, act as a spectator, and offer your own version of the player's next move by making it on the board.

How to play

The player with the red checkers goes first.
The goal of the game is to capture the opponent's king or destroy the maximum number of his checkers.
All pieces, including the king, move horizontally or vertically on any number of squares, like a rook in chess. At the same time, they cannot jump over their own or other people's checkers, as well as move diagonally.
Taking pieces is done by pincerizing two enemy pieces on your turn.
If the king finds himself in a situation where he is unable to make a move in any direction, he is considered captured and the game is over.
The game ends if one of the players has only one king left, which makes it impossible to capture, in which case his opponent wins.
