In all Draughts variants, the following rules apply:
- Players take turn by moving one piece
- Pieces can move to an adjacent empty position
- An adjacent opponent piece can be captured by jumping over it (which implies the next position is available)

- When possible, several captures can be performed at the same round (with the same piece)
The winner is the first player to have no legal move: that is, all of whose pieces are lost or blocked.
