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.

The knight is the only chess piece that can jump over all others on the board.
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 .
Poop Jump is a game for the Android platform. In the game, you get to be a piece of feces that escapes from a toilet.
In checkers, kings can jump over other pieces by moving diagonally across the board. When a king lands on a square immediately beyond an opponent's piece, it captures that piece, which is then removed from the board. Kings can make multiple jumps in a single turn if they have the opportunity to do so, as long as each jump follows the same diagonal movement pattern and lands on an empty square. This ability to jump over pieces is one of the key advantages of kings in the game.
Yes, in the game of checkers, players are required to jump over their opponent's pieces if possible. This is a mandatory move when a player's piece is able to jump over an opponent's piece.
The knight passant in chess is significant because it is the only piece that can jump over other pieces on the board. This unique ability allows the knight to maneuver in a way that other pieces cannot, making it a valuable and strategic piece in the game.
If a player does not jump when they can in checkers that piece is taken out of the game.
Yes, a single can jump a double in a game of draughts. As long as the jump would be allowed with another single piece, it is also allowed with a double.
In the game of checkers, jumping is mandatory if a player's piece is able to jump over an opponent's piece. If a player has a jumping move available, they must take it.
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.
Only the knights are able to jump over another chess piece. The king can only move one square at a time.
