How to Play
Peg Solitaire, also called Chinese Checkers, is a game of luck and skill. Remove pegs by jumping over them, just like Checkers, until only one peg remains in the center of the board. Your goal is to clear all of the pegs but one. To clear a peg, jump over it into an empty space. Click a peg to select it, and then click an empty space to make a jump.
Tips for Beginners
- Start slowly and look for the easiest match, path, or clue before making risky moves.
- Use the first minute to understand the board layout instead of rushing through guesses.
- If you get stuck, step back and scan corners, repeated symbols, empty spaces, or blocked pieces.
