Run from operating system prompt by typing “draughts ” where is the number of half-moves you want the program to look ahead. The higher the number the better the quality of the game but the slower the program will play. 3 or 4 is probably about the limit for most people’s patience, but you could use higher numbers for batch-mode play. The program always takes first move (it plays black, you play white). It will display the board on the screen and the cursor below that. You can then type your move by typing the coordinates of the start and finish squares, row first e.g. one possible starting move is 5140. Note that you must type the 4 digits with no spaces or anything between them, exactly as shown. Also when taking one of the computer’s pieces, the destination square is on top of the enemy piece not beyond it even though your piece will actually be jumping over the enemy piece. Press CTRL-C to stop the program.

Another thing that really makes Draughts enjoyable for me is how it manages to stay interesting even after playing it multiple times. Many games feel repetitive after a while, but here, the experience still feels fresh because of the small details and different ways you can approach the gameplay. As you continue playing, you naturally start improving and understanding the mechanics better, which makes everything feel more rewarding. I also appreciate the balance the game maintains—it’s not too difficult, but it’s not too easy either. You can play it casually for a short break or spend longer sessions without getting bored. That flexibility is one of the biggest reasons why I keep coming back to Draughts. Overall, it’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you for a moment, but actually gives you a consistently enjoyable experience every time you play.
