Our Story

About KingOrt & Checkers Master

We believe the best games are the ones that have stood the test of time.

♟️ "Every square tells a story."

A Game That Needs No Introduction

Checkers — known as draughts in many parts of the world — has been played for thousands of years. Archaeological evidence suggests the game dates back to 3000 BCE in the ancient city of Ur. Over millennia, it has evolved into one of the most beloved strategy games on Earth.

At KingOrt, we set out to recreate that timeless experience in a modern, accessible format. Checkers Master is our love letter to the classic game: clean visuals, intuitive drag-and-drop controls, and zero barriers between you and the board.

Our Philosophy

We believe great games should be available to everyone. That means no downloads, no sign-ups, no paywalls, and no intrusive advertising. Just open your browser and play. Whether you're on a lunch break, waiting for a bus, or relaxing at home, Checkers Master is always one click away.
