African Draft is a classic board game that has been played for generations across the African continent. Resembling checkers or draughts, the game is played on a checkered board, where players move their pieces diagonally with the aim of capturing their opponent’s pieces by jumping over them. The game varies by region, with some local adaptations in rules and board size, but it always emphasizes strategic planning, patience, and foresight. African Draft is not just a recreational activity; it is a social and intellectual game that strengthens problem-solving skills while bringing communities together. It remains a cherished pastime in homes, marketplaces, and gatherings, reflecting Africa’s rich tradition of strategic games.
