Action Checkers is a game of checkers played on a minefield. It is played on a board that is similar to a checkers board. But that is where the similarities end. The object of the game is to move just one of your pieces to the other side of the board. That's right, just one piece! It sounds easy, but the going will be rough. The board is a minefield, and if you move or jump onto a mine, your piece will explode. Occasionally pieces are arrested and put in jail. When trial occurs, the judge is not usually very lenient. Then, there are the electric fences, which aren't too good for your pieces either. A player can also win when his or her opponent runs out of pieces.You can play against the computer (with an easy or harder level of play), or a human opponent. The board layout and colors, and the various "events&quot\; are all easy to customize.
