10-second Checkers
Checkers or Draughts is a classic game. Most popular version is played on 8x8 board. Making a reduced version reduces the number of possible moves and the time of the game.
This mini version of this game has brought a lot of smiles to peoples' faces. Go ahead, make your own version of this game and see yourself.
