We’ve updated the backend to allow richer collabs. The first two are DappRadar and Edenhorde. DappRadar unlocks a checkers and chess set if you have at least one RADAR token. Whereas with Edenhorde, the tribe of the PFP you own, will be the tribe you get to play with in canVERSE.

It’s time to welcome in 2023 with an update! We’ve been trying to master the ways of Hygge and making our environments as warm and welcoming as possible, even if it is to lose a game of Chess against our Discord members. We’ve got a lot planned this year so stay tuned, but for the meantime why not treat yourself to this update.

GLHF players!

We are extremely excited to announce the addition of Checkers, our second game for the canVERSE platform!

Just like Chess, you can play solo or online against your friends. Checkers AKA Draughts in the UK offers players a simpler game to get to grips with.

We have taken on the feedback from Chess so you should find the Checkers AI much more approachable.

Although Checkers has been around for roughly 4,000 years, here’s a quick refresher of the basic rules -

• Black goes first
  
• Pieces move diagonally one square on the black squares only
  
• Normal pieces can only advance forwards
  
• You have to move
  
• You have to take if you can
  
• Taking a piece jumps over them, essentially moving you two squares
  
• You can take multiple pieces in a single turn
  
• Getting a piece to the opponent's end of the board ‘crowns’ your piece (represented by stacking two pieces on top of each other)
  
• Crowned pieces can move forwards AND backwards
