The two players in Cherokee Checkers are known as "Same" and "Different".  Players <b>don't</b>

own or control the red or yellow pieces - each player can move either color!  All moves in Cherokee

Checkers are horizontal or vertical, there are no diagonal moves.

Players score by jumping pieces. The "Same" player scores by jumping pieces of the same color (red

jumping red or yellow jumping yellow).  The "Different" player scores by jumping different colors (red

jumping yellow or yellow jumping red).

The first player to jump 13 pieces wins!  You can jump multiple pieces in one move.

If you look at the game board you might notice some of the squares are red or yellow.  These are very

important squares!

If the "Same" player lands on a square with the same color, they get to go again!  For example if

"Same" is jumping red with red and lands on a red square, they get to go again.

"Different" works, well, differently.  If they end up on square with a different color, they get

to go again. An example would be using a yellow piece to jump a red piece, ending on a red square.

One final rule, you can't move the piece last moved by your opponent.  This can

be very important!
