Kings

Kings is a 2-player game, here's how to play:

• Objective: Capture all of your opponent's pieces or block them so they cannot make any legal moves.
• Game setup: Played on an 8x8 board using only the dark squares; each player starts with 12 pieces placed on the three rows closest to them.
• Gameplay:
  1. Regular pieces move one square diagonally forward.
  2. Capturing:
     1. Pieces capture by jumping over an adjacent opponent's piece to an empty square directly beyond.
     2. Multiple captures are allowed in one turn if possible.
     3. If a capture is possible, it must be taken. Players can choose their preferred sequence if multiple captures are available.
  3. Promotion to King:
     1. A piece becomes a 'King' when it reaches the opponent's back row.
     2. Kings can move and capture both forward and backward by one square.
     3. A turn ends immediately after a piece is promoted to a King, even if a subsequent capture would be possible.
• Winning the game: The game ends when a player captures all the opponent's pieces or blocks them from making any legal moves.
