A piece making a capturing move (a jump), can capture only one piece per jump. However multiple jumps are allowed to be made per turn. If a player is able to make a capture, there is no option, the jump must be made. If more than one capture is available then, the player is allowed to choose if he or she takes the piece. So 3, 4, even 5 pieces can be taken on a turn.

Can you jump your own color in the board game trouble?

How do you play solitaire the board game?
The board is set out with all the holes filled except the centre hole. You need to choose a piece to start. This piece must then be able to jump over one other piece and land in the centre hole beyond. The piece you jumped over is then removed from the board. Choose another piece, that can jump over an adjacent piece to land in one of the two holes you have now on the board. Again remove the piece you jumped over. Continue in this way choosing a piece that can jump over an adjacent piece to land in a hole next to the piece you jumped over and remove the pieces you jumped over at each turn. You can only perform jumps left to right or up and down - not diagonally. At the end of the game, you must try to get no pieces left on the board, except the last piece, which, after 'jumping' must land in the centre square to win .

Are you allowed to jump kings in draughts?
Yes: both other kings and uncrowned pieces can jump and remove the opponent's kings from the board. The only difference in ruling is that the smaller uncrowned piece cannot move backwards to do so; whereas kings can move or take in any direction.In fact, if the smaller piece does not take a king that is available for 'the taking', he may be removed or "huffed" from the board for 'not taking'.Whether you are a small piece or a king, you are required to take any adjacent piece that could be jumped. That is a fundamental rule for draughts, and can be used as a basic 'given' in the strategy of play in that game.

Yes, otherwise the game would never end! :) For that matter, a normal piece may also jump a king given that the king is further from the piece's starting side of the board - just the same as jumping other ordinary pieces.
