Double and triple jumps in checkers

After a jump, if your piece can jump again it keeps going in the same turn. Learn multiple jumps in checkers with puzzles. How checkers works · lesson 4 of 6.

The lesson in words

If, after a jump, your piece lands where it can jump again, it keeps going in the same turn. That’s a double jump, and chains can be even longer.

You must finish the whole chain: you can’t stop halfway.

Tap your piece, then each landing square in turn.

Try it: Capture both black pieces in one turn.

Find the longest chain.

Try it: Capture three pieces in one turn.

Always look for the longest chain. Next: crowning a king.
