Draughts - Board game

by Andrew Miles


Draughts allows you to play the game of draughts using the Wimp's
multitasking environment. Click of the icon in the RISC User menu system, you are then presented with an icon on the icon bar.  Clicking Menu presents you with the following icon bar menu:

Clicking Select or Adjust on the icon bar icon brings up the standard
draughts board. The names of the players can be altered using the two
writable icons. The current player is shown at the bottom-right of the
window.

To move a piece simply drag it to its new position.  If the move is illegal the piece will be returned to its original square.  If you can't go then just click OK.  One important point to note is that if you jump over another piece you will also need to click OK for the next player to go.  This is to allow for multiple jumps.

If you would like to save your position during a game, clicking Menu and going to the save option will allow you to do this. To play a saved game at a later date drag the saved file to the draughts icon on the icon bar.
