Game Rules:

1. Rule 1: The objective is to move all of your checkers into your own home board and then bear them off (remove them from the board). The first player to bear off all of their checkers wins the game.
2. Rule 2: Players take turns rolling two dice. The numbers rolled indicate how many spaces or points a player can move their checkers. A checker can only move to an open point, which is a point that is not occupied by two or more opposing checkers.
3. Rule 3: You can move one checker the total value of both dice, or move two different checkers based on the individual values of the dice. If you roll a double (e.g., two 3s), you get to play that number four times, moving up to four checkers.
4. Rule 4: A point with only one opposing checker is called a "blot." If you land on a blot, the opposing checker is "hit" and placed on the bar (the middle divider). The opponent must then enter that checker back onto the board before moving any other checkers, starting from their opponent's home board.
5. Rule 5: Bearing off can only begin when all of a player's checkers are in their home board. You bear off a checker by rolling a number corresponding to the point the checker is on. If there is no checker on the point indicated by the roll, you must make a legal move with a checker on a higher-numbered point. If there are no checkers on higher-numbered points, you must remove a checker from the highest point that is occupied.

Controls:

3. Action: Drag the checker to the desired point and release the mouse button (or lift your finger) to place it. The game will automatically highlight valid moves for the selected checker.
