How to play Chinese Checkers

The goal

Move all of your marbles from your camp to the camp directly opposite before anyone else moves all of theirs.

Moving

Tap a marble to raise it, then tap where it should go. A marble can step to an empty neighboring hole, or hop over an occupied one — its own color or another's — landing in the empty hole just beyond.

One marble can chain several hops in a single turn if each lands on an empty hole.

A few rules

A move must end in the center, your own camp, or your target camp — never parked in someone else's camp along the way.

Once a marble reaches your target camp, it can only move to another hole in that camp.

Fair play

Each computer player only tries to reach its own camp; they never team up against you.
