What it is

Honey-coloured pieces against berry pieces on a warm wooden board by the cabin window. Step diagonally, jump over the other side's pieces to take them, and reach the far row to earn a crown. Start with kid rules (jumping is your choice and your moves are shown), then play standard rules where a jump must be taken. Clear-the-board puzzles and two-player tables too.

What children learn

For fun: looking ahead, protecting pieces and planning multi-jumps. PlayTime games keep stars but are not counted as learning evidence.

What it teaches

  • Turn-based strategy

How to play

Tap a piece, then tap where it should go (for a double jump, tap each landing square). Keyboard: arrow keys move around the board, Enter picks a piece and Enter again moves it, Escape cancels. Easy levels show every possible move and let you take a move back.

Plays with: Touch Mouse Keyboard
