"Draughts" can mean: 1. Drinks. People have been drinking forever, it wasn't invented. 2. Breezes that get through walls, doors and windows. They weren't invented either, they just happen. 3. The game also known as checkers. Its invention is lost in antiquity.
Draughts and checkers are two names for the same game, known as checkers in the United States and Canada, and draughts in other countries. The main differences between draughts/checkers and chess are the size of the board, the number of pieces, and the movement of the pieces. In draughts/checkers, players move their pieces diagonally on the board, while in chess, players move their pieces in various directions. These distinctions impact gameplay and strategy by requiring players to think differently about how to control the board and capture their opponent's pieces.
The game draughts is also known as checkers.
Checkers (in the UK and other countries outside of the US spelled usually chequers) are coloured squares in a pattern of alternating light and dark squares, as in a checkerboard or chess board. It is also the name of a game played on such a board (customarily 8 squares by 8) also known in the UK as draughts, using flat discs which are also called checkers.
