This page (as well as other application pages) is best
seen with Netscape 7.0. We regret for IE ... and other products

This appears to be the first attempt to create a serious draughts/checkers player to work on J2ME devices. Though very far from becoming a champion, it will challenge the majority of human players, and will nicely fit in your mobile phone ! A partner you always wanted during a long trip, or a boring conference.
The application implements International, English/American (a.k.a. Straight), Brazilian, Pool, Spanish, Russian, and Thai draughts/checkers, and provides a variety of customised features, including give-away and blitz games. The application supports Wave, Tone, or MIDI sound depending on a device it is running on.
