    Description

    Satan’s Checkers is a derivative of Chinese Checkers that uses a pentagram-shaped board, fixes some of the issues of its predecessor and also includes a few more rules and goals. Its oldest ancestor, Halma (Jump) came from the mind of Monks, an American, around 1882. A decade later, it evolved into Stern-Halma (Star Halma) in Germany; 26 years after that, it was rebranded in the US to [Hop Ching] Chinese Checkers. But the devil is in the details, and 89 years later still, the 6-pointed star is 5-pointed, and its routes and connections are no longer congruent: Satan’s Checkers has reared its horned head! Chinese Checkers warily welcomes this black sheep goat to the family.
