From the innovators and creators at Paolo Zaccaria, Filipino Checkers / Dama is another fun addition to the World of Board games. Go beyond your mobile screen and play it bigger and better on your PC or Mac. An immersive experience awaits you.
Filipino Checkers, or Dama, is a simple board game that takes the classic checkers formula and tweaks it with a few rules unique to the Philippines. It’s all about sharp moves and trying to think ahead of your opponent, but there’s this extra layer of strategy that comes from the local rules. For one, pieces only get crowned when they reach the other side, just like regular checkers, but how they move and capture after that feels a bit different. The game goes pretty quick—no big wait times or laggy animations, especially if you’re using BlueStacks to run it on PC. Everything runs smoothly with a mouse, and you can just focus on outmaneuvering whoever you’re up against.
Dama is perfect for people who want that head-to-head kind of challenge, but don’t want to sit through long tutorials or grindy levels. You can play solo to practice, but it’s definitely more fun with another person right there, each trying to trap the other’s last piece. The whole thing feels really easy to pick up, but there’s a surprising amount to figure out. Games move fast, so it’s not too stressful if you lose, and you can always jump back in for another shot. It keeps things local and familiar, but also has this clean, smooth feel when playing on a bigger screen.
