Description
Shashki is a classic abstract strategy game that's easy to learn and fun to play. This Russian form of Checkers has its own unique rules, making it a distinct game that's full of excitement. Played on the black fields of an 8x8 board, two players take turns moving their pieces, trying to outmaneuver each other. A piece can move forwards only, but it can capture forwards and backwards, adding a layer of strategy to the game. As you play, you'll need to think ahead and plan your moves carefully, trying to promote your pieces to kings and capture your opponent's pieces. With a playtime of just 30 minutes, Shashki is a great game for a quick showdown with a friend. Its simple rules and deep strategy make it a game that's accessible to new players, but still challenging for experienced ones.
