What is the objective of the game of Checkers?

The objective of the game of Checkers is to capture all of the opponent's pieces or immobilize them, rendering them unable to make any further moves. The game is played on a square board consisting of 64 alternating dark and light squares, arranged in an 8x8 grid. Each player starts with 12 pieces placed on the dark squares of the three rows closest to them. Players take turns moving their pieces diagonally, either forward or backward. Captures are made by jumping over an opponent's piece, removing it from the board. Multiple captures are allowed in a single turn if the opportunity arises. The game continues until one player achieves the objective by either capturing all the opponent's pieces or immobilizing them.
