In this variant the aim is to get rid of your own pieces. You win as soon as you have no pieces left, or when you have no legal move on your turn.
What is anti-checkers (giveaway)?
Quick answer: Anti-checkers, also called giveaway or suicide draughts, reverses the normal goal so that you win by being the first to lose all of your pieces or to have no legal move left.
Anti-checkers takes the standard rules and turns the objective upside down, which makes for a surprising and strategic twist.
The reversed goal
Same rules, new thinking
Movement and mandatory capture rules still apply, so you must jump when you can. That forced capture rule becomes a weapon you point at yourself, forcing your opponent to take pieces they would rather leave alone.
