It takes five minutes to learn, but is endlessly challenging and rewarding. Each turn consists of one normal checkers move, plus a "roll-over move," in which a different checker is rolled over to increase its numerical strength by one. This adds a rich and complex layer of strategy to the game, and exponentially increases the number of directions the game can take. ER -
