Hungry Queen

TWO CHECKERS GAMES IN ONE Hungry Queen gives you two ways to play on one board: classic checkers, and the reverse "giveaway" mode where the first player to lose all their pieces WINS. Switch between them anytime. CLASSIC MODE The checkers you know. Capture your opponent's pieces, promote to Queen, and win by taking them all or leaving them with no move. GIVEAWAY MODE (also known as Losing Draughts or Anti-Checkers) The rules flipped. Your goal is to lose all your pieces first. Forced captures chain into wild multi-jump combinations, giving pieces away becomes strategy, and matches end in minutes. Feed the Queen. Lose to win. WHAT YOU GET LOCAL MULTIPLAYER Pass and play on one device. Perfect for family game nights and coffee breaks. PLAY VS AI - 4 DIFFICULTY LEVELS Our AI uses an advanced minimax algorithm with alpha-beta pruning, iterative deepening, and quiescence search. It adapts to both modes - in giveaway mode it truly plays to lose. - EASY - Learn without pressure - MEDIUM - Balanced challenge - HARD - Serious tactical opponent - EXPERT - Plans 9-16 moves ahead TOURNAMENT MODE Beat all 4 AI levels in a row (Easy, Medium, Hard, EXPERT) to earn the Hungry Queen crown. One loss and it's over. ONLINE MULTIPLAYER Create a private room, share a 6-digit code, play with anyone in the world. FLEXIBLE GAME TIMER No timer, 45s, 1 min, or 2 min per move.
