Pros and cons of Chinese Checkers | 波子棋 | 跳棋 app for iPhone and iPad

Chinese Checkers | 波子棋 | 跳棋 app good for

This is THE proper traditional Chinese Checker game. Jumping move is from the original game rules, not sure why the previous comments will say "jumping move" is not correct. But the game will be perfect if allow to keep winning records and able to turn off the suggestion move.

This is faithfully recreation of a classic board game. The rule is super simple: you can move the marble a step at a time or make it "jump" over any other pieces. The jump has to be "symmetric". The intervening piece is the center of your path. There should be no more than one intervening piece to make a jump. Alright, the greatest fun is that you can make multiple jumps in one go. So planning the best path to get the marble go farthest is great! This app gives you a "preview" of your planned path before you hit "go", which is a very clever design. In brief, if you know how to play and enjoy it in the past, you would enjoy the experience digitally!

I love Chinese checkers, but only when played with the proper rules, which include symmetrical, long jumps. This is the first iPhone app to get it right!

It adheres to the real rules of Chinese checkers. Marbles are easy to maneuver on the touch screen. Only minus for me is that it has only the 2-player mode. They should add the options of playing with more players. Overall this is worth the $$ if you love true chinese checkers. The best version available out there for iPhones.

Some bad moments

Sorry to say but this game doesnt seem to follow any rules I know. Have never seen these multiple space jumps allowed betore. 99 cents wasted.

Terrible game. It has faulty rules programed into it. Absolute waste of time. I deleted as soon as I tried it.

Its okay, but doesnt play the standard way you normally play the game!

This app was NOT worth $.99! There was only 2 players. I do not reccomend this game if you want a real game of chineese checkers

I bought this app w/ great excitement but realized that the rules are not the same as what I used to play by.

I bought the wrong game when I played this one I was very disappointed. Dont understand
