You play red, the AI plays black. Move diagonally, jump to capture (it's forced!), and crown kings at the far row. Take all the enemy pieces to win.

The same walkthrough the table opens with — you can replay it in the game at any time.
You play the red pieces (bottom), the AI plays black. Move diagonally forward and race to capture every enemy piece.
Tap one of your pieces to select it, then tap a highlighted diagonal square to move. Reach the far row to crown a King ♛ that moves both ways.
Jump over an adjacent enemy to an empty square to capture it. If a capture is available you MUST take it — and keep jumping while you can.
Trap the AI so it can't move, or take all its pieces, to win. Watch out for its multi-jumps. Good luck!
