Other Checkers Programs

Here are some alternatives to CheckerBoard that I find noteworthy:

• Checkers Tutor for the Android platform - my Android app including a pretty strong checkers engine in Java.
• Sage by Adrian Millet.
  Commercial, Windows. Demo version can be downloaded.
  Sage is a bit weaker than the top programs, but it has a nice interface with many useful database features. It can also use my 'Cake' engine to play a better game!
  
  
• Checkers for Linux!
  Peter Chiochetti's Capers comes with an older version of Cake as engine, and is probably the best checkers program you can get for Linux.
  
  
• Gui Checkers 1.05 is a small checkers program with nice graphics by Jon Kreuzer. Since version 0.90 it also is available as a CheckerBoard engine dll. Gui comes with source code, so you can learn some of the more advanced techniques that are not built into simple checkers, such as hashtables and forward pruning.
  
  

If you know a checkers program which belongs here, please send me the link to it's website!
