[h2]Checkers, with baby animals[/h2]

Animal Checkers is the game you already know, played by animals that are far too cute to be this ruthless. Pick a world, pick a side, and start taking pieces.

[h2]Three worlds to play in[/h2]

[list]

[*][b]Jungle[/b] — tiger cubs against panther cubs, on warm dirt and grass

[*][b]Arctic[/b] — polar bear cubs against wolf pups, on packed snow and cracked blue ice

[*][b]Backyard[/b] — puppies against kittens, between the doghouse and the picket fence

[/list]

Each world has its own board, its own scenery and its own sounds — jungle insects, arctic wind, birds over the fence.

[h2]Every square has a surface[/h2]

Pieces don't just slide around a flat grid. Land on dirt and it kicks up a puff of dust. Land on snow and it scatters in the cold air. You can hear the difference under every move.

[h2]Cubs grow up[/h2]

Reach the far side of the board and your cub becomes an adult — bigger, prouder, and free to move in both directions. Getting a wolf pup home is one thing. Getting it home as a wolf is another.

[h2]Play it your way[/h2]

[list]

[*]Three difficulty levels — Easy blunders often, Normal plays a fair game, Hard never misses

[*]Two players on one screen, taking turns with the same mouse

[*]Pick your world and opponent before every match

[*]No timers, no accounts, no grinding — sit down and play a round

[/list]

Simple enough for a child who has just learned the rules. Sharp enough on Hard that you will lose to a kitten.
