Well, technically, in draughts (or checkers as some people call it), you can move your pieces backwards if you're a king. So, if you manage to get your piece to the back row of your opponent's side, it can then move both forwards and backwards. But let's be real, who's actually gonna eat their opponent's pieces backwards? It's all about strategizing and outsmarting your opponent, not chowing down on their checkers.

How many steps do a piece move in draughts?

In draughts, a piece typically moves one step diagonally forward to an adjacent unoccupied square. When capturing an opponent's piece, it can jump over that piece to an empty square immediately beyond it, also moving diagonally. If a piece reaches the last row on the opponent's side, it is crowned and can then move both forwards and backwards diagonally.
